I had hoped for some more patterned dresses, but it was kind of amazing how I could find parallels even for the monochromatic dresses. The beading on Emma's dress really does match the pattern on the Aeolidia papillosa - and hemline too. Plus I think Scarlett's necklace is just so branchial plume now. Trust Gwennie to wear a nudibranch egg rosette on her shoulder. ;)minouettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12698448500324207741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7622472899382420396.post-6404558314795190942015-02-24T14:53:59.515-05:002015-02-24T14:53:59.515-05:00This is so fun, you did such an inspired job pairi...This is so fun, you did such an inspired job pairing the nudibranches with dresses!
