  5. It worked great for me. Isn't it wonderful that you can pass something so special on to your own daughter?

  14. Adorable! My daughter was a "pencil" for Purim...she's 13...a whole other kind of sensibility about what a costume might be at that age!

  15. OMG! She is so cute! I was not a very girly girl, but I always wanted to be princess for Purim (but not for Halloween). How cool that you still have one of your own Purim dresses.

  17. I'm so uninformed. I didn't know that Purim involved costumes. Now I'll have to Google it.

    Very cute costume. I just finished The Flamenco Academy by Sarah Bird, and it gave me a whole different view of flamenco. It's a fascinating art.

  19. We'll see, right now modeling is a sideline LOL - she wants to be a doctor when she grows up.

    Besides, she won't take direction worth a damn ;).

  21. 'Besides, she won't take direction worth a damn ;)' - LOL!

  22. Utterly charming! And how lucky that you saved the dress.

    Of course I'll be putting your name in the hat for my drawing - winning once doesn't preclude the chance for winning again. ;)
