Becoming a Lady
A girl changes physically as she grows a year older. She will soon be becoming a lady. Whether she like it or not, she will become a lady as years pass by. A lady with values and principles in life, that’s what every parents want their little girl to be. It is not as easy as it may seem. Physically becoming a lady can be done naturally but attitude wise it is something that takes little baby steps to achieve and prepare your little girl for that big world outside her tiny little room.
For Hispanic girls, they celebrate her 15th birthday with a so-called Quinceanera. This is where a little girl is now becoming a lady. Of course the dress is one of the important items that should be considered. Not too flashy or trying hard to look mature, just the right dress for her age. There are varieties of quinceanera gowns or dresses to choose from online or in the boutiques. As to shoes, just around 2-3 inches in the length of heels will be enough. Not too high, the birthday girl might stumble. Just a little bit of protection of her also.
It has always been a tradition in the Hispanic culture to celebrate Quinceanera when a girl reaches her 15th birthday, a commemoration that the little girl is now becoming a lady.
