Cinderella dressed in...

My first blog entry for Prince Repeller is finally here! As some of my close friends understand, I am quite the perfectionist. I've wanted my first blog post to be incredibly pretty but also beneficial to our readers. Goodness, I hope I can accomplish both! Feel free to provide some constructive criticism on my blogging skills; I am always open for suggestions and advice.

We had an extensive winter here in France and I am thrilled for it to warm up a bit. I am very fond of this season due to the fact we always get visitors from all over the world. I get to encounter some of my relatives and friends I have not seen all year!  But most importantly, it means that I get to try new recipes and get to remodel the house a bit! This summer I have plans to reupholster the furniture in my stepmother’s bedroom. I found the perfect fabric from Marché Saint Pierre. They have a boundless selection of prints and excellent service! Her room is currently filled with deep purples and maroons and I want to lighten it up for the summer.

I was also lucky enough to grab some scraps in the clearance section and made a maxi skirt for myself tonight. I posted a picture below! What do you think?





Lace Sweater: ASOS
Crocheted Vest: Buckle
Slippers: Chinese Laundry
Skirt: DIY
Headband: Thrifted

Today I am making Chicken Fricassee with Tarragon for one of our cousins arriving from Rome. It is one of my favorites to make. I am also trying a new dessert called Apricot Almost Clafouti I found on Pinterest, I am hoping it turns out wonderful! Well friends, I hope you enjoyed my post; I now have to fetch some last minute supplies for dinner tonight. Have a splendid week!

P.S: Word around the house is that my cousin is bringing a man friend ;) Not that I am in need of someone right now, but flirting couldn't hurt right?

Once there was a Princess

Hello world!

This is my very first post! My name is Show White and I am 14 years old. I have multiple nicknames too! One you probably know of is Sneewittchen! I love nicknames but they have to be nice okay? No name calling here! I am a big animal lover and heavily involved in the Nature Conservancy Program. We work super hard to protect ecologically lands and waters for nature and people! Right now, I'm working on a new project with the rainforest animals in Central America. The animals I love focusing my attention on are chipmunks and deer ;) they're so easy to talk to and super helpful! I guess I am going to have to let you in on a little secret...I can talk to animals! It is a special talent of mine that I will dive more into on my other blog entries!

So what is a prince repeller?

-noun

putting oneself in a very offensive outfit that may result in repelling potential suitors. Such pieces of garments and styles would be fluffy tulle ball gowns, glass slippers, bright red headbands and 70 foot long hair.

-verb

Snow White: Are you really going to be attending the party tonight with those glass slippers and arrive in that funky looking pumpkin car?

Cinderella: Yeah, I have no other choice :(

Snow White: Mhm, girl you are going to be prince repelling for sure!


Why start this blog? 

I have a tough time trying to explain my problems and outfits. I always seem to scare off people, especially boys for some reason. I wasn't sure why until my good friend Grumpy suggested a reason. Yeah, his name is Grumpy! He said maybe it was because of the crazy clothes my friends and I wear! I guess we seem a bit scary with our evil "step mom" stories and ball gowns we walk around in. So I made this blog to show my "repelling"outfits and stories. Hopefully my fellow "repellers" can relate.

I also will be collaborating with some of my close friends on here! We will talk about great skin tips, what to wear to parties, marriage/relationship advice and much much more! Okay enough about me and more about what I am wearing in today's blog post!
