Woof woof. I’ve only liked dogs for a few years. Strange, yes, but it’s only been in the last five years or so where the fear I once had for pooches has finally disappeared. Phew. Because I can’t see myself disliking my little sisters doggies, they’re just too loveable. Dogs on a dress are fine though, they can’t hurt you!

This printed number was actually picked up to wear on my birthday last year. It was love at first site – a gorgeous, rich colour, a super sweet Peter Pan collar and a quirky print. Plus it can be worn with stockings in winter for those girly days. This outfit joined me for a family lunch catchup with my sister and Nanna, and the flowing skirt provided plenty of room for dessert!

Are you a dog fan?
