I'll have to add some big pockets to the front of the skirt, maybe in a different patterned fabric. I found some striped pink fabric online that I think would be good for the vest, that would also be good for pockets. My sister suggested putting some big flowers on the outfit as well, I'll have to add that into the design. as well as some big bows. thanks for the suggestions!
