    Oh my goodness, this is precious. Does she love her tutu???
    I managed to get one for Stella, while not the cutest (or most orthodox style, I mean, we live in Asia, I’lll take what I can get), it does the trick, and Stella loves it!!!
    Lily must be just too cute for words in this getup!!!

      @Erica,

      Lily has quite the tutu collection going already. the one she has in this pic is actually a big and long tutu skirt my good friend made for her and gave to her last year. she then has a black swan tutu gifted from her grandparents, a pink tutu gifted by another friend and her ballet school tutu. she loves nothing more than to dress up like a ballerina and watch ballet. does Stella love ballet school?

        Love it! Sounds like she’s in tutu heaven! Stella loves ballet class (though it’s super informal, run by a gym that does all sorts of classes, I picked it b/c it happens to be located a mere 5 min walk from our house!!!), but she’s not that into following directions and doing the exercises. She likes free dance with pom-poms best!!
        She also loves watching ballet; I’ll put one on youtube, like a full-length ballet thing, and she’ll be captivated for ever!!
        Have you seen the documentary First Position? I’m dying to watch it with S.
