Because Spring Looks Gooooood On You, Baby

I adore the fabulous, cheery print on this flared skirt so much I'm extraordinarily tempted to email the creator and ask where on God's green earth she found such a great fabric. The great combination of scarlet, green, turquoise, pinks, blues, and greens on exotic-looking flowers and butterflies is beyond perfect (at least to me). And this girl is a lady after mine own heart: she trimmed the hem with red rickrack! I think that gives her automatic entry to my "Club of Fabulous", because rickrack is one of the best trims ever invented.

Made of 100% cotton, this prettily flared skirt is a nice comfortable length. As you can see, this doll offers a lot of wearing and accessorizing options because of all the colours. It zips up the back and there's no waistband, it's nice and smooth, so you don't have to worry about strange lumps or lines under your tees or sweaters.

It fits a waist of a little over 41" and hips from 45-47". The skirt is only $35 from the wonderfully named Far Above Rubies & Lady Avelina. (I think Lady Avelina may be the artist, and I am understandably digging the "Far Above Rubies" part.) Her shop is full of curvalicious skirts in very cute prints, like this summery sunflower-y one, as well as some very, very pretty freshwater pearl jewelry sets - I've never seen freshwater pearls in pale orange before, but there they are and they're quite lovely. Enjoy the great things at Far Above Rubies!
