8:2:15_IMG_0607The idea of tulle overlay dresses is fabulous! They are so versatile: wear only the simple under dress to a beach or a playground, or add the mesh overlay to make it really dressy. And I think it will look super cool if worn over some jeans and T-shirt. Ellie’s grey Hibou dress by Eliane et Lena was designed like that, 2 in 1 – simple A-line tank knit underdress with beautiful, full, and twirly tulle layer over it. Love the ballerina design on the front peeking through the mesh! Alice is wearing Matilda Jane Cake Batter Lap Dress (Hello Lovely collection) under the detachable mesh layer of Special Snowflake Dress from 2014 Holiday collection. Headbands and shoes: Matilda Jane Popcorn headband and Melissa for Vivienne Westwood Anglomania wedge platforms – on Alice, Persnickety Zaya Gray Rosette headband and Bonpoint Philo T-bar canvas sandals – on Ellie.

8:1:15_IMG_0474Alice’s Matilda Jane Platinum Ellie tunic top has the same pattern of carousel horses as Calliope Dress. This top is called ‘Jolly Holiday with Mary’. Her Maisey shorties are from the same MJ Platinum collection. Ellie is wearing Matilda Jane too: Sprinkle Sara top from Serendipity collection, with Mud Pie shorties. In both outfits I matched the shorties to the bodice part of the tops. Both hair clips are by MJ as well, Alice’s doesn’t have a name – it came as a gift with purchase from MJ, and Ellie’s called Emma pin. Shoes: Classic pink Crocs on Alice, and Strawberry flats from Next Direct on Ellie.
