Berry Good

Vintage Fruit Skirt & SJP Collection Fawn in Ochre Satin

Spring is an open field of style possibilities. Usually  people immediately think of floral's or pastels. What about a real Berry Good Fruit motif?

I adore a novelty print and fun appliques every season but there is something about Spring time and fabulous fruit.

I recently acquired this unique wool skirt, adorned in the sweetest embroidered fruit applique, all the usual favorites; Strawberries, Pears, Grapes, Cherries and more. It got me thinking about fruit fashion and how beautiful this motif is for spring.
