MAGICAL MERMAID COSTUME IS PRETTY AND PRACTICAL FOR GIRLS

This girls' Magical Mermaid Costume from Chasing Fireflies comes with a sparkling cape to keep her warm and pretty accessories to make her feel special, whether she wears it on Halloween or just for fun.

If your little girl dreams of a life under the sea, this Magical Mermaid Costume ($78) might be just the ticket this Halloween. We love this particular take on the mermaid costume because it has all the flair of Ariel (note the sequins, iridescent organza, and shell detailing on the satin bodice) without being too risqué for your little one. It's also a bit more practical than your average mermaid get-up, since it's designed as a shapely gown rather than a leg-hugging, plastic wrap-like "tail" ending in a clunky fin (a combination that's sure to spell disaster along your trick-or-treating route).

Speaking of practicality, a tank top (however cute it may be) certainly isn't the best clothing choice for late October in the NYC area, so you might want to add the Magical Mermaid Sparkly Cape ($48) to her outfit.

While the cape will keep her warm, other accessories like the Magical Mermaid Tiara ($14), Magical Mermaid Wand ($8), and Magical Mermaid Choker ($8) complete the fairytale ensemble.

Magical Mermaid Costume comes in girls' sizes 2-10. See the full ensemble at Chasing Fireflies.
