Polly Dolly - Flower Power

I was so happy when i woke up this morning to discover that the wonderful Dani from Danimezza had finally posted this weeks Polly Dolly challenge. Seriously - i mean knowing that its still the weekend and i get to spend time with my boys is awesome, but Polly Dolly is like my one weekly blogging addiction, so to know i had that to llok forward to today was great. Like everything was coming up roses. Or flowers as it were - because this week Dani would like to know how we would dress our Polly in....

Polly Dolly - Flower Power

I have to say, as soon as i saw this weeks challenge was " Flowers " i knew that i wanted to keep the pieces fairly classic - i wanted to it to be chic, timeless outfit because ( to me at least ) the wrong floral pattern dates an outfit and makes it look too "grandma". So, thinking along the lines of a timeless pieces i found this gorgeous Burberry trench coat which has a soft flower pattern over the standard Burberry check, and then found a gorgeous Mad Men-esque shift dress. Pair these with soft grey textured tights ( the texture provided by a silver flower pattern ), plain grey booties, a chic Alice band for Polly's hair and cute love-heart brooch. Flowers without the "grandma" vibe? yes please!
