That is just gorgeous. That’s no way to treat a princess.
Oh dear, she looks lovely though x
No pictures please! Bless her! Emma
Oh dear….a bit of a diva strop?
Love the tiara!!x
Yeah, don’t think I’ll be entering her in any ‘Little Miss’ beauty pageants anytime soon..! x
Oh look at the bottom lip! x
Aw, she still looks very fabulous though. Looks like she’s heading straight for adolescent moodiness!
She’s still beautiful though even with the pouting!!!x
Cue strop! Nicely captured.
Mardy!! What a gorgeous face, mardy or not, lol.

Oh dear, why so sad? She’s far too pretty a princess to sulk like that!
Someone isn’t happy, don’t think she got her own way 😛 Still a little princess 🙂 x
LOL!!!! She does carry the stroppy look off pretty well doesn’t she? I’m quite sure I don’t look that good when I’m in a mood…
Yeah right Jax! Actually I think it was Kirsten in her purple dancing outfit that took the prize way back the day. Love you all kiddo XXX
Aw, even princesses get in a strop sometimes you know!
tehe, I cant help but laugh when they get into strops
No wonder she looks unimpressed, where is her handbag?! What princess carries a plastic bag around eh? Fab pic!
