In her newest hilarious endeavour, Olivia embarks upon a quest for identity and individuality. It seems there are far too many pink and sparkly princesses around these days, and Olivia has had quite enough!

She needs to stand out. And so, in typical Olivia style, she sets about creating a whole array of fantastically dressed princesses and shows us that everyone can be individual and special.
