Madeline, the smallest little Parisian girl who lived in that old, vine covered house with all the other little girls. One of my favorite childhood stories, and one of my daughter’s favorite stories as well. . I grew up with this character showing me how to be kind, sweet, and clever. Those traits still make her an excellent role model for our daughters even in today’s society. With Halloween being right around the corner I wouldn’t be surprised if dressing up as Madeline is a popular idea amongst a lot of little girls.
I found a great Madeline outfit online at Anytime Costumes that is surprisingly affordable. For $39.99 the costume comes with the blue capelet and yellow hat she wears (complete with the black ribbon around it). This outfit is so cute! I can just picture my daughter or any little girl really, in the black and white buttoned, long sleeve, blue, polyester dress. It even has the little red ribbon on the front with the white collar! When we received the package, my daughter just can’t wait to try it on and she really loves how it looks like on her!
The website recommends hand washing it and this costume is returnable (I’m assuming only if it doesn’t fit). You would still have to purchase black shoes, and white knee high’s to complete the look, but you can buy shoes that would go with it at the same website. The site also sells accessories, make up, props and other miscellaneous items you may need for ensemble.
This company, Anytime Costumes, is very well known, and has been around since 1975 and even today is still family owned and operated. They’re very reliable, have great customer service, and great products! I strongly urge you to check out their site.. I like this website because it offers a blog as well as great costumes. The costumes blog will give you some ideas and tips for parties and entertainment. If you’re wanting more information, they’re also available on Facebook. I think I may like the Facebook page a little better than the site itself. It has pictures of their costumes and outfits going back to 2009 up to 2012! There are selection of adult, child, and plus-size costumes makes it a “one-stop shop” experience.
Because the selection of product they have is so massive don’t be surprised to be spending a good chunk of your time looking at all they have to offer. You don’t have to just be looking for Halloween costumes either, you can purchase from them year round, and for any occasion!
