I'm a Girl's Girl
If there is a fabric out there with ladies of all colors, gimme gimme gimme! As soon as I saw this fabric, I had to have it. I, of course, love the women of all shades, but I also love the playful shapes of their hair. The fabric simply puts a smile on my face. If you are looking to shop this fabric, it is a quilting cotton. The name of it is called Friends and Faces by Carolyn Suzuki - Paintbrush Studio Fabrics. If you can find it, grab it!
The best way for me to share the fun, playfulness of this fabric is with a casual button-up dress. You all know that I love a good statement piece, so although this dress is casual, it still does the job of being a WOW factor. Am I right?!

The cherry on top for this dress is the buttons. It matched perfectly with the playfulness of the girl’s hair. The irregular shape of the buttons adds a fun textural element that gives the dress a polished and professional finish.
