Inspired by: Precious Purple Princesses

Spring is finally here! And that has all of us over here at Ella Dynae beaming from ear to ear! Spring is a time for brilliant blooms, vibrant colors, and new beginnings.

How could you look at that and NOT feel inspired! Which means the creative juices have really been flowing in the Ella Dynae studio and so we wanted to share our latest costume creation with you all!

...Sofia the First! Isn't she just stunning! Sofia reminds us of a freshly bloomed crocus or maybe even scrumptious purple cupcake :-)

And what would a pretty princess do if she didn't have a fabulous springtime fĂȘte to attend?

I found myself in Wonderland.

Valentine's Day is a time filled with love, cheer, and happiness. And it's a time when magical things can happen. Inspired by this theme of imagination, whimsy, and romance, Ella Dynae set out to throw an Alice in Wonderland themed photo shoot, just in time for St. Valentine.

Not only did we debut our brand new Alice and Queen of Hearts costumes, but we also designed a Mad Hatter tea party to help set the scene. We are so tickled to now be able to share some of the final images with you all!

Alice seems to have just fallen down the Rabbit Hole and has stumbled upon a fabulous tea party!

Little does Alice know, but a feisty Queen of Hearts eagerly awaits her!

Unless of course Alice is distracted by some delectable treats ;-)

In fact, this mad tea party is just too scrumptious for Alice to pass up!
