oh those detested dresses

Oh how the girls hated these VERY expensive M&S dresses I on the other hand loved them

They were a lovely soft material, lovely small flower pattern, beautiful vintage lace collar and buttons oh how I loved to see them in them all spruced up shiny shoes and woolly tights,BUT they hated them detested them never wanted to wear them especially for a school photo lol.
I thought I would scrap these photos (school ones you would never guess would you) as a constant reminder to them of the BEAUTIFUL dresses I used to make them wear.
This L/O is another one I never finished so I am feeling very righteous at the moment The papers are K&co Madelaine which are so vintage looking just like those dresses ha ha. xx

  2. I know what you mean! My daughter didn't always like the stuff I bought for her, what battles were had, lol. But your girls looks gorgeous, I love those little collars and a beautiful layout. Just love the sentiment.
