Thrifting Thursday: Florals

I'm not really into floral patterns but this one was ok. The print is more jungle then garden flower (make sense?). I was really drawn to the tunic style of the collar and the elastic waist. It's a little bit long and a little bit big though. It didn't seem so big in Unique's mirror. I should have left it behind but since I have it...I belted it. Maybe one day I'll get around to chopping off some of the length and/or divide it into 2 pieces.

The envelop clutch is also thrifted. I really wanted to show the pretty shell closure but alas my hand is covering it. Next time.

Note to self: fix clothing after breast-feeding.
Do you wear floral prints? Jungle, garden, neither?

I love this! I dont really have anything with bold prints, but I'm thinking about branching out some. Most of the time when I think floral, i think of old fashioned floral wallpaper. ugh, lol! But this floral print is funky, and chic, and not at all old-fashioned. I can get with something like this!

@Christina thank you. I like the print too. Floral but not too doily.

@Tiffany it's actually a bit longer. I'm doing maximum "blousing" in the pic. :)
