Spring Green for the May Queen

For tea parties, dates or even an afternoon wedding, this supremely ladylike look is posh and perfect.  A neutral colored top keeps the focus squarely on the skirt, while metallic shoes and accessories make you look like a fashion pro...attempting to match your shoes to one of the pastels in the skirt's watercolor print would run the risk of making you look like an actual May Queen or other provincial princess.  Alternatively, for more dressed-down occasions, try a chocolately brown belt and matching sandals with a chunky heel or platform.

WHERE TO GET THE LOOK:

Erdem "Laverna" silk skirt
Catherine Malandrino pleated-ruffle blouse
D&G Dolce & Gabbana gold belt in "Lame"
Pierre Dumas metallic gold "Rose" sandals

FANCY EXTRAS:

Vanessa Bruno bag
Flower rings (all Nordstrom.com): Kate Spade enamel daisy ring; Betsey Johnson flower & ladybug ring; bright blue Couture Couture by Juicy Couture; Betsey Johnson bee and bouquet of flowers ring
Estee Lauder Illuminating Powder & Chanel Aqualumiere Sheer Colour Lipshine (both Nordstrom.com)
