The look

Top
Long, flowing maxi dress (or a white dress)
Headwear
Flower crown
Makeup
Optional small painted flowers on the cheeks
Hair
Loose and natural, or in two loose braids

Makeup

  1. Use a clean cosmetic brush to paint a small daisy on one cheek.
  2. Add three tiny dots of color beside it for petals and leaves.

Hair: Leave hair loose with a gentle wave, or make two loose braids and tuck the crown on top.

How to put it together

  1. Put on the long dress and check the hem sits above your ankles.
  2. Gently settle the flower crown on top of your head.
  3. Style your hair loose or in soft braids.
  4. Add optional gold jewelry, a headband and cheek flowers.

Two variations

  • Meadow Fairy

    Pin a few paper leaves to the dress and add a glittery cheek dot.

  • Sunshine Child

    Wear a yellow or orange dress and paint a small sun on the cheek.

Safety note

A long dress can be a trip hazard, so gather or hem it above the ankles. Use skin-safe face paint with a patch test first.
