And to make all little girls feel that much better, only they can get away with wearing little puff sleeves (like the one in the upper left) and not look dorky. I have yet to see anyone over 13 do that and not look twee. They are all so cute.

It was pretty similar to the dress on the bottom right but we ordered it in ivory with a chocolate brown sash. She looked adorable and age appropriate (she was 7). :) We ordered our flower girl’s dress from Us Angels.

Although the little girl's beehive is freaking me out a little. My flower girl's and junior bridesmaid's dresses came from Pegeen. They make the most beautiful dresses, in any color you can imagine. They're great to work with--and I had some serious problems, like a SiL who canceled the flower girl dress at the last second because she was freaked out about sizing. Pegeen called <i>me</i>, in a very "I don't want to alarm you, but..." way, to let me know so I could work it out. They're also one of the few companies that makes dresses for plus-size little girls. They can even be custom fitted, which is the option we used. My niece looked so beautiful in her bridesmaid dress, and I can't tell you how relieved and happy I was that she wasn't at all shamed for her weight. I was a plump little girl and I remember what that was like. I can't recommend them more highly. Love the dresses. Although the little girl’s beehive is freaking me out a little.

And I don't know about any of you, but when I was a small child, I would have given almost anything to wear one of those dresses. The bottom left one would have been my seven-year-old choice, I'm sure. It would have made me feel like a fairy princess, and what little girl doesn't want the fairy princess experience? Okay, there are a few, but most of us at a flower girl-appropriate age do want a chance to feel like a fairy princess. These dresses do the job. A-Freaking-men, NtB!
