Halloween Costume Woes

Well, my eleven-year old daughter who runs along the moody side anyway is a bit upset because her yellow tights arrived today. The yellow tights are supposed to be for her yellow minion costume which should be super cute. However, the color is NOT as pictured online & of course, here we are just a few short days away from Halloween. Not sure that there is time to return and reorder. Oh the Woes!

I'm so sorry! I know how upset 11 year olds can get.

I think it was a matter of hormones because today she is much more reasonable about it

You got to find a way to convince her she can as well use it if there is no time left to order another. I hope she will enjoy it anyway

she's relaxed a bit today about it. i think she must have been feeling overly emotional yesterday.

That is always a problem isn't it things look different color online than in person. I hope you come up with a solution. I don't suppose they can be dyed?

yep, i remember hesitating to buy it because it was called "mustard" and often mustard in clothes is a bit darker. but i was fooled! :-) We'll make due
