Pixie Curtis has ditched fairy bread and cordial and instead rang in her 12th birthday party with an expensive extravaganza.

Pixie’s birthday party looks more like an elite cocktail party than a child’s birthday party and you’d expect nothing less from the pint-sized businesswoman.

Pixie’s mum Roxy Jacenko told news.com.au that the theme wasn’t something trivial like Barbie, instead, they’d gone with a “Singaporean and Hutch” theme.

“She wanted to share a little bit of her new life with her friends, many of which have been by her side since kindy,” she said.

Pixie’s big birthday party also doubles as a send-off. She’s about to relocate with her family to Singapore.

See? She had to go out with a bang.

There was red carpet, that featured her name spelt out in giant block letters, lavish red table cloths and yes, red flowers.

Of course, there was also a red cake that was so beautifully designed it could be mistaken for a statue.

So, definitely not a decoration attempt by Mum following a Women’s Weekly birthday cake cookbook.

Before you even ask! Yes, there was also a photographer to capture every moment, sometimes iPhones just aren’t enough.

Pixie, herself donned a floor length white gown for the special occasion and her signature orange locks were practically shining.

Pixie might be Australia’s most famous child; she’s the daughter of PR Queen Roxy Jacenko and businessman Oliver Curtis.

She has over 100,000 Instagram followers, has run several successful businesses and is the proud owner of a $270,000 Mercedes Benz Gl – even though she’s years off being able to drive herself.

In recent text messages, she called her mum a “dumb a**” for not knowing a brand of healing balm.

She’s a young woman that knows what she wants.

So you’d have been mistaken if you thought she’d be sitting around playing pass the parcel to celebrate turning twelve.

Instead, Pixie held her birthday party in Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs at the swanky restaurant Matteo.

The luxury dinner was followed by a sleepover with all her closet gal pals, and no, the sleepover wasn’t held in her childhood bedroom.

Instead, it was located at the Sydney’s five-star Crown Hotel, and Pixie didn’t just get to invite one or two friends for the fancy experience. No, 27 classmates came, and they took over a whole floor.

Jacenko called the sleepover a “staycation.”

The iconic giftbags.

Instead of lolly bags, the lucky attendees were given gift bags that were crammed with luxury products from Mecca.

While Jacenko didn’t reveal what the budget was for the birthday bash she did share they spared no expense, but she made it clear that the “experience” overshadowed the cost, and it was a “memory” she hoped her daughter would never forget.

So what is next for Pixie? Well, she’s about to tackle high school.

“It’s head down bum up from here on in! She’s very excited to experience the Singaporean culture and way of life and have the opportunity to meet new friends from around the world.”
