For today's outfit, I'm wearing the Dolores top with my beloved red bow skirt from ChicWish and of course, I had to bring back the Pop Corn Novelty bag.  There's something about this bag and this print together that just makes this outfit really standout.

If pressed I don't really think I could choose a favorite.  I love everything about this outfit and the previous (which you can see here) with this print!  It is just too, too adorable!
Sweet Your Heart Red Bow Skirt Chic Wish blogger review
In my last outfit, I accessorized with blue.  For this one I'm sticking with red.  Next time I think I'll try something in mustard or cerulean blue.
I've been so inspired by this print that it renewed my search for a few of those gorgeous circus print dresses from RockSteady a few years ago.  I am pleased to report that I successfully found two of them although I did have to compromise on sizing.  
Basically, no one had one in good shape in my size, so I bought what was available because I trust my sewing skills.  After a few alterations, they should be making their debut on the blog soon.  Actually I'm glad to have the extra time while I'm tailoring them to really think about how I want to style them.  
Sometimes I get so excited that I rush into photographing before I've really had time to think about how to make an outfit look its best.  That's part of the benefit of buying from UK shops is that it takes a little longer to arrive so I have some time to play around with a few things and figure out how I really want to style things.
At any rate, this outfit has turned out exactly as I had pictured and hoped and I couldn't be more pleased.  I can't wait to see how I can style this top next.  By the way, you can use the code DOLORES20 to save 20% off your next purchase at Collectif.  Some exclusions may apply.  Code expires June 27th 2020.
