Strawberry Tea Set

I knew I’d wear this dress, which is a perfect interpretation of the woman’s dress in the painting, but the accessories took some thinking. I have no strawberry brooch (something to be rectified as soon as possible!), but luckily I just bought a bunch of embroidered face masks to jazz up my outfits, and as luck would have it, I bought a strawberry one! There’s a bit of yellow in the painting too, so I added my yellow belt, and the embroidered flowers on it are also a nod to the pattern of the tea set – but let’s face it, it’s all about the face mask in this one. Don’t forget to check Terri’s blog on Wednesday to see how everybody did!
Salazar, this dress is so pretty! And I love that adorable yellow belt with it. But you are right, the face mask really takes it to the next level! Fun interpretation and a really lovely outfit!

You couldn’t go wrong starting with that dress! I love how you included the other elements from the painting with your accessories. The strawberry mask is, indeed, perfection.
