Happy Summer Solstice!

Yesterday was the longest day of the year, so I decided to dress up a little!
I wanted to wear my flower crown again, but I wasn't in the mood for Lolita, so I thought I'd give Mori girl style a go. Mori girl is a Japanese style centred around a forest girl theme and involves a lot of dreamy fabrics and lace worn in a more rustic style, it has similarities to Dolly Kei.
I went for a dress by a brand called Yumi, which is sold here in the UK, and kept it simple by layering over a plain white dress and pairing it with some brown sandals, then finishing the look off with my flower crown of course!
I adore the lace detailing on this dress and the floaty fabric! I think the flower crown works really well with it too! Unfortunately I think the sandals probably worked better with this outfit in my head than they did in real life =( next time I'll probably wear brogues or boots and some chunky crochet tights instead. A floaty peignoir would probably look really cute layered over the dress too! 
For a first attempt at Mori girl, I don't think its the worst look ever, but it definitelt isn't the best!
Remembered to take a faceshot too for a change! I usually braid my hair when I wear my flower crown, but I like this more casual look too ^_^

Have you tried any new looks recently?
