I was thinking of waiting a bit longer to get the Fall floral Dress for Matilda, but when I looked at the sizes available it looked like it was getting really low in stock so I bought the last size 2-3 yrs (98 cm) that PO.P had available online. This dress is made of a really nice, soft cotton knit. The cuffs are unexpectedly wide, but fit her just right. The dress hits her right at the knees. She really loves that it has pockets for her new Smurfette toy (in her hands on the last photo). I ordered the Guava colored tights, thinking that they would be the same color as the pockets, cuffs and collar, but it's dark like the background color. I can't decide if I want to keep them so I put them away right after this photo shoot. The black Umi boots are the ones she wore last year and I'm not sure how much longer they will fit her but she insists they still fit.

After this photo shoot we ended up liking the dress with the green pants rolled up, and the black Umi boots. She wore this outfit on Saturday and got many compliments on its fun style. The green pants are from a previous season but they look really well together and I don't think that the green has to be an exact match since the green flowers are so small on the dress.

Other options for this dress are the matching Everyday Fall Tights in Very Berry color, which I think match the pockets, collar and cuffs. Or if this dress is no longer available in your size, you can still get the Fall Floral Keyhole Tunic in this same print and pair it with green pants or jeans.
