I think it could easily turn a bit cutesy so was definitely going for something with a dark and stormy edge to it.

Such original patterns with such unusual lines! This dress style is definitely one that I like on you - original and quirky but still a bit 'dark and stormy' which I think balances it out. As usual - the perfect liberty choice. I bought a particular Liberty print on Saturday just past because I've been so inspired by you!poppykettlehttp://poppykettle.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008815686832698964.post-73235221916181626202014-06-07T17:12:09.687+10:002014-06-07T17:12:09.687+10:00Thanks Kristy!
