Tinker Bell is one of the most famous fairies
(and an easy to find costume)

Fairies rank right up there with princesses as favorite costumes for little girls, on Halloween and dress up play any other day of the year.

Tinker Bell is among the most popular fairies around, so you can find a Tink costume almost anywhere these days. We have two that my girls really enjoy. One by Creative Designs International. The other is the Tinker Bell Role Play Light Up Dress.

You can also make any costume into a fairy by adding wings. For instance: add wings to your princess costume and you're a fairy princess; add wings to a pumpkin costume and you've got a pumpkin fairy; add wings to some pjs and you're the tooth fairy; dress up in a winter outfit with a cozy hat and poof - a winter fairy; and so forth. It's one of the easiest costumes to play around with and use your imagination with, as a good fairy would.

An easy fairy is a winter fairy!
Just add wings to a warm outfit

One place to find cool specialty fairy gear is the online boutique Fairy Finery. Their costumes and accessories are hand made by moms in the USA. And they've got quite a magical collection.

Fairy Finery flower dress & hairband (not wings)

Among their cutest - and multi-purposeful- the fairy flower tulle dress. My two year old has been sporting this costume around all week. It has a velvety soft bodice and the skirt is light, airy and poofy and it is filled with flower petals. She loves twirling around in it. Add the handmade flower ribbon headband and some wings and you've got a sweet little flower fairy or spring fairy.

Sisters can have fun dressing as seasonal fairies with a costume like this. Add a long cape and get it in blue for winter fairy. Opt for the green for summer fairy or magenta with leaves in her hair for a fall fairy. The dresses are well made so they can also be used as flower girl dresses or fancy party dresses too. Another fun one would be to add a birthday crown and be a birthday fairy on your little girl's special day!
