And if you know the story of why she wore it that day, you'll understand that it wasn't her first choice. But I feel the misstep was all about the fabric choice. Its a dark floral, but closeup its that blurry style of silk printing - just not a wise choice. But I'm sure some lucky girl is going to make a better job of this with your awesome pattern!pearlcardiganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17825778447235920180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2905231145787139406.post-8211201860891196442012-08-15T11:21:11.538-07:002012-08-15T11:21:11.538-07:00Only Grace Kelley could wear ivy on her head and l...Only Grace Kelley could wear ivy on her head and look beautiful. nancyc20https://www.blogger.com/profile/10110078676535660035noreply@blogger.com
