Prints Charming Sunday: Tiny Dancer

Thanks for dropping by another fine Prints Charming Sunday!

You know, I was all set to try and find a sweet and romantic (albeit generic) rose print for today's theme. I know, I know, roses are hardly news-worthy OR that much of a novelty, but being as though it's Valentine's Day coming up and all (in case you forgot) I thought I'd go the cliche route and write about them. But then I found a print that rocked my socks off (whatever that means) because not only is it roses (aww sweet, blech) but it's also a novelty print (huzzah!). And what a combo at that! I give you:

Roses and...Mexican dancers? With fans? And sombreros, even? Perfecto! Not too syrup-y, not too wacky, not too...Valentine's Day-y...just right! Plus, it's not tiny!...unlike the dancers on the it. (Thank you! I'll be here all night!)

  1. Sombreros eh? It could catch on.
    But one of my fave colour combos, pink and green,so it gets my vote.
