Feeling a little French ladylike today

Funny story about this dress. My mother is a part-time (casual) teddy bear collector. It has became a habit for my brother and I to look for special bears when we travel (my brother lives in Australia). Early spring this year Starbucks came out with a limited edition bear who's dress is designed by Alice and Olivia. I instantly snatched one up for her. I won't be able to deliver this bear to her until later this year but I have sent her several photos to tease her! Last week I received a parcel from her and inside the box there is this dress. At first, I thought, wait a second this looks familiar! But I knew I did not own any dress that looks like this? Where have I seen it? As I walked into my closet and saw the bear I realized this is basically the same exact dress that the bear is wearing!  I will insert a comparison picture at the end of this post for you to see! Such a fun mother I have :)

p.s Have you been watching Fifa? Which team do you support?

Here is my twin! I think she looks better in the dress than I do, haha :)
Thanks so much for reading! Have a fantastic week! <3

Um, this Teddy Bear story is the CUTEST! Your mother is too adorable. I had no idea Starbucks did a collab with Alice + Olivia... how could I not know about a collection that combines my three favorite things? (Coffee, fashion, and teddy bears!)

I agree that you look very Parisian chic in your dress! Love how you paired it with the pop of pink. It's such a great way to add a bit of summer fun to any outfit! :-)

What a funny and cute coincidence! The dress (both actually) looks lovely on you. Yes, I have been closely following the World Cup. England is unfortunately out but I am going to support the USA next.
