We take training for a Wyrd Sisters concert very seriously - as all good Wyrdos should.
The preparations start months in advance - normally at Laura's Rainbow Day party in January.

As usual, we had a party on the day of the concert to get into the proper mood and make ourselves beautiful for the Wyrd Sisters.

Heather chose the sophisticated red scarf look. Mandy and Laura opted to go red all the way. |
Elisabeth is wearing a gorgeous custom-made dress, created by her mom Helga on the afternoon of the concert. Claire is styling in her Wyrd Sisters t-shirt and red skirt. |
