Really Cheap Costume Idea, Thanks to Dollar Tree: Purple Fairy Princess with a Pin Up Flair

Purple Princess Pinup Fairy - a cheap plus size costume idea


Purple Princess Fairy with Pin Up Flair, a Dollar Store Costume Idea for Plus Size Costumes


Thanks to the Dollar Tree, I was able to become a pinup fairy princess for Endymion Parade this year at Mardi Gras 2016. 

I turned it into a Princess Fairy with a Pin Up flair but wearing my polka dot jersey dress and doing up my hair in a classic pin up style with curls and short Bettie Bangs.
