There she is (in white) with her best friend Evie. Izzy is wearing mucci & me, necklace mum's own, make-up by mum and hair by Izzy, clutch by ruby & kit, shoes (not shown) by catwalk. I thought she looked lovely. It was a beautiful and warm day in Sydney, perfect weather for a formal...
Meanwhile her baby sister Georgia (who loves animals and her dollies) took her favourite soft toy (a doggie) outside and had fun splashing and dancing around for a short while. The garden is so green and lush at the moment, it's just an explosion of colours and wonderful sounds...
I was thinking that in ten years time little Georgia will be getting ready for her year 10 formal...scary, isn't it? I don't want my children to grow, I just want to cuddle them forever...well I can't really do much about the growing up bit unfortunately, can I?
Next up will be Lucas and his dinner dance, we are looking forward to that and luckily he is a boy...at least we won't have to worry about hair and make up this time!
Take care,
Claudia xo
What beautiful girls I bet they had a zillon boys trying to dance with them!
ReplyDeleteYour daughter looks absolutely lovely!! You should be very proud. Leahxx
ReplyDeleteThe white dress is lovely. It looks surprisingly comfortable for formal attire.
ReplyDeleteOh look at your beautiful girl.. reminds me of my niece some years back.. and how exciting for her... life is just beginning!!
ReplyDeleteYour little one has the right idea for this latest round of weather.. might try that myself.. now.. where's my teddy!!
Have a great week.. ciao xxx Julie
She looks gorgeous. Dinner dance still to come. I hope everyone realises the background prep by mum for all these events. Luckily you have a break before the next one. Its a busy time but we mums love it, don't we?
ReplyDeleteah- the girls both look stunning.
ReplyDeleteyes I don't want my 'baby' growing up either. it all flies past so quick some times.

Claudia, please pass on to Izzy my compliments on her dress, hair and makeup. Her friend looks lovely too. Can't think how she could've looked any better! Hope the night exceeded all expectations!

She looks beautiful claudia love her dress. Her little sister is a beauty to time flys by to fast doesnt it especially when you have children.
ReplyDeleteI have a christmas prize give away over on my page with one of my new boutique products pop on over xx
ReplyDeleteThey both look so gorgeous :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful images- the setting and your family- thank you for sharing these!
ReplyDeleteShe is so lovely! There is no way she is 10?! I loved your previous post, and am so happy that you "drew the line"...it is such a hard thing to do as a parent, but I often worry about what I am setting my children up for if we give them all that they want. We as women I am sure always remember an event or dinner where we wanted some fabulous outfit that did not fit in the budget...and had to go with plan B ~ which often works out far better! I used to be a makeup artist for many years, and I do know that when someone else does your "face", it often does not at all reflect the person ...she probably would not have felt like herself, and she looks SO lovely as she is! Brava Mom!

She looks absolutely beautiful!! Love her whole outfit. Good job Mom :) And Georgia is the cutest--love their names by the way!
ReplyDeleteShe looks gorgeous! Izzie and her best friend could be sisters!!
ReplyDeleteIKWYM re: them growing up. Lewi turned 12 yesterday and I'm sitting here wondering where the heck the times gone? :(
Thank you all ladies for all your comments and kind words xx
ReplyDelete@ Nathalie
Izzy is 16 (you probably got confused when I said "in 10 years time..." she's 10 years older than Georgia! x)
@something gorgeous
We do love it, I agree! x
How gorgeous - I am facing this next year so have loved your account of the build up to the day. Thank you Francesca
ReplyDeleteOh your daughter and her friend both look stunning; I love their outfits - they both look very chic! It's amazing time flies so it is important to document these milestones and celebrate them so you can always look back on such beautiful memories xx
ReplyDeleteOh she looks so fabulous & such a pretty dress, age appropriate & really suits her fabulous figure. I love that my girls have formals on the horizon, it's so exciting. I hope they let me put them in Alannah Hill, thankfully they trust my taste. My son will be so boring in a suit, oh well, maybe in a few years boys will be wearing something a little more groovy than just a dinner suit?? Mind you, with 4 children, am i looking for more work in the dressing-teens department?? Love Posie
ReplyDeletePS what school does your daughter go to?? I went to Ravenswood & went to some fantastic formals.
Just Beautiful!

She looks amazing. You must be such a proud mother:)
ReplyDeleteIzzy looks lovely in her pretty dress and little Georgia is very adorable as well. You have two very pretty daughters and I am a little jealous at your beautiful backyard!
