English Rose

There is something so romantic about the swirling pinks and lush green hues of traditional English roses. The old fashioned motif has a sense of history and antiquity that still feels timeless to me. A splash of the dainty print in a modern settings adds an eclectic twist. Just don’t go too overboard or it will read granny instead of glam!
