Summer cotton coolness …
I love these long, warm summer days.
We are lucky to live in a very mild climate here in South East Australia.
With a fitted, pretty-shaped bodice and waistline this dress gives a feminine and flattering shape.
The print is classic mid-century polkadots mixed with new millennial chic floral that offers interest and beauty to the eye.
Colour me in:
I’ve worn this dress with pink/coral cardigan and shoes but there is also purple in the dress and it could very easily be worn with purple accessories, or even black and still be ultra-cute!
I love the soft movement of the skirt as it is cool and feminine!!
Pretty pleating:
These pleats curve beautifully around the figure, which I just love.
Thank you for joining me in my little corner of the web today!!
