Power Capes

We got a surprise the other week.  In our mailbox was a bag from the same company as the TUTU FABULOUS we had reviewed recently.  Unbeknown to me and without me requesting it, Jasmine had received one of their Power Capes.  

We received a sparkle crown in the back with the letter S for super-heroine. *grin*  About two weeks ago we went to the Awana Grand Prix activity on a Saturday. Knowing that it could take a long time for a little girl to wait for her big brothers to compete, I allowed her to bring her Power Cape. Her closest brother in age – not competing either – requested that he bring his own Superman cape (which is longer by the way). So both brought their capes but since we were surprised with the Power Capes a couple of days before, I decided to take pictures of Jasmine in the gym.

I asked her to show the back and the size of the cape which she gladly proceeded to pose for me.

Jasmine really love the pink cape and I once again I am impressed with the quality of the design.   There is Velcro to keep the cape around the neck instead of the dreaded cord that can cause problems.  I have mixed feeling with cords (and one Superman costume we have has this to hold the cape!) and seeing that the Velcro is safety sown there give me peace in my heart.  Then the side of the cape has been sewn professionally so that the material does not rip during play time.

My sweet Jasmine loves to wear it anytime she can.  This cape of hers shows up regularly in the house. She goes to get it in her room and comes downstairs proudly wearing it.  And it doesn’t take time for her brother Jérémy to follow suits with the Superman cape we have.   Together they are ready to fight the villains in their imaginary world.

The capes are currently on sale for 24.99$ on their Power Capes website. (Prices mentioned at the time of this posting.)

Tutu Fabulous

My sweet daughter has started pre-ballet classes through our city thanks to a gift certificate I won while filling up a survey from the City.  So I decided that she could enjoy dance classes as she loves to twirl around in the living room and elsewhere in the house.   My first pick got cancelled because of low registration so I decided to go with pre-ballet lessons.  

Now after her first lesson I checked some possibilities of reviewing a tutu for her.   And Tutu Fabulous graciously responded positively to my request. 

While visiting their website, one particular tutu grabbed my attention as it would perfectly fit with her pink or purple bodysuit.     The Tie Dye Punch Princess Tutu is  signature dress up tutu. These tutus feature our exclusive satin skirt, surrounded by a lovely tulle and topped off with an oh so cute ribbon. These tutus are great to wear, for dress up, and costume tutus are perfect for Halloween or any time your little girl wants to be a princess.  The tutu comes with an adjustable cordlock that will stretch the waist from 2 to 38" to make it one size fits most.   It is ideal for little girls ages 1 through 10.

So I waited patiently for the tutu to arrive.  One cold January afternoon, my oldest son went to the mailbox and came back with a special package.  I knew immediately that the tutu had come in but I waited until supper time to show it to my sweet five year old daughter.  Her eyes sparkled and she was delighted to have a new tutu to bring at her ballet lesson.   Every week, she keeps asking if her class is the next evening.   Every time I have to tell her no but it will come soon.  Tuesdays is a special day for her because she knows that she will go learn something new at her class.

Every Tuesday night when she comes back from ballet lesson, she is very excited to show us – parents and brothers – the new things she learned.  She is adorable and completely spunky.   I love my girl to pieces and I can see that she enjoy dancing.

Here’s the latest things she showed us.    She was very proud to have her new tutu for the class this week!

Now talking about the tutu itself.   I am very impressed with the way it was sew together.   Jasmine has another tutu at home but it’s not showing the high quality and time spend in making this one.   Under the tulle, you will discover a satin skirt that makes this tutu even more special for ballet classes.  The tulle itself is even sown with the satin which helps to keep the tulle in place.   And the bow at the front of it completes the tutu.   My daughter is planning to wear it every time she is practicing her ballet positions and when she wants to dance.  She is even talking about trick-or-treating as  ballerina next Halloween (but we shall see the temperature….). 

Tutu Fabulous has numerous colors available for their tutus and each of them are high quality.   Their tutus are currently available on their website for the price of 24.99$ (sale price).
