Again from the May edition of burda (#113), this is a dress I completely fell in love with…
It is perfect for warm sunny days (though we don’t see much of them around here) with cute flowers. The fabric can be translucent so I lined the top. I added a belt, to make the it a bit more "dressed"and in a craziness moment, i decided to hand-sew beads on the belt… It turned out lovely!

Love the beading. Great idea! And it’s a good combination of material and pattern.

Very pretty, I love the back of it too. We dont get warm weather here too, I can sympathize with you on that one.

But you know what? I have spent a year in Ireland, and I actually like the weather better there (call me crazy). I even managed to get sunburnt in April when I was there, 3 times!

I was thinking about using this pattern too, but I wasn’t sure it would suit me. After seeing this, I’m probably gonna make it, I just have to find a proper fabric. You look lovely in it! And taller too. :)
