Introducing "Little Flower Bud"

Dress Design for Shabby Apple Dresses
Introducing "Little Flower Bud"

Inspiration: Spring has sprung and my inspiration for this look stems from the vibrant colors and exuberance of the spring season.  An afternoon on a park bench along a sidewalk busting with tulips and daisies is a perfect afternoon indeed.  With a smart dress that has the look of separates, the mock *buttons* on the front actually form a surprising twist to the look, since the dress is wearable via a side zip.  The deep, rich, dark hunter-green skirt hits mid-knee and the various textures in the "sweater" and the shirt add interest.  The high and thick waistband cinches the waist for a trim appearance.  The ruffles on the bottom of the skirt and neckline screams feminine and flirty while the smart floral clutch completes the outfit.  A beautiful ensemble for the active woman who wants to go from the office to a lunch date to class without changing her look.

Color and fabric suggestions:  Rayon or polyester blend for the skirt, knit-wear for the "sweater" and cotton/ eyelet for the shirt.
