Last year I bought some green taffeta and made a top of it. Some weeks agao I decided to make my version of Michelle of the rest of the fabric. Now I can wear the top and the skirt together, then it looks like a dress. (I know the beige-colored top is not the best combination to the skirt but I havn’t had a better one.)

I love the ribbon and the fabric. It looks very feminine. I love it!

This is the best Michelle I saw on the site! Good color contrast.

I actually think the beige looks nice with it, just neutral. Good colors for the skirt, and good shape, too!
