Should save more money now!

Oh dear, I really scare of year end now after my eldest enter kindy. Why I said so? This is because her kindy will organized some functions for the kids before holiday break. And then they will request the kids to dress up nicely to follow some party themes. Hey, mind you those costumes not cheap at all. Usually I have to spend about $80.00 plus for a small suit. The worst is I cannot let my girl wear it after the function. Correct or not? who want to wear such costumes to shopping mall? I think I better DIY renaissance costumes for her for her next school event. Firstly I can save some money from my DIY work; secondly I can keep the costumes for my next girl when she enters kindy soon. LOL
