  Dress similar by Selkie // Apron // Fan // antlers // shoes   You know everyone goes with that dark Christmas green or bright green but sometimes it is good to stand out with pastels.

I even have it in the short version.  Great dress for spring, summer, and winter. Also if you are concerned about keeping it clean an apron, like the one I am wearing, is a great option.  Buy from Amazon  here .
