Very Cherry
A beautiful cherry-red summer dress with exquisite detailing. The cotton is ideal for summer outings, but the style could also transition into fall by pairing the dress over leggings and a long sleeved top.
Very Cherry has been translated into Japanese by Naoko Ogawa and is available for purchase HERE.
