By Coco Simon
Book #22 in the Cupcake Diaries series
A dress contest, a Halloween party, and chaos collide.
Mia dreams of winning a Design-a-Dress contest but is overwhelmed by the challenge. As she races against time, a fashion clash with her friend Katie escalates into a heated argument. With a Halloween cupcake party looming, Mia must navigate frosting, silk, and friendship to complete her dress. Can she stitch her way to success, or will chaos unravel her plans?
Mia is excited to enter a Design-a-Dress contest, but she’s pressed for time. And when she tries to finish working on her dress during a Halloween cupcake party, it’s a recipe for disaster! When Mia reads about a Design-a-Dress contest in a magazine for “budding designers ages 12-16” she is excited. But she doesn’t realize how much work designing–and sewing–a dress truly is until she starts on her contest entry. While Mia stresses out about all the work she has to do, she and Katie have an argument about, of all things, fashion preferences! Katie offers suggestions that don’t really go with the outfit Mia has in mind. And when Mia makes (what she thinks) is an offhand joke about Katie’s fashion sense, it turns into a full-blown argument. As Mia tries to finish working on her dress during a kids’ Halloween cupcake party, she realizes that kids plus cupcakes plus silk dresses plus frosting equals a recipe for disaster!
