Floral skirt

Well, my first intention was to sew this cute dotted one-piece dress from"Simple Chic" book.
But, this pattern and floral fabric I have chosen, plus flounce around the neck… NO, NO, NO!!!That was complete disaster. Something between housedress and apron for ten year old girl. And that's not me. :) I am 47 grown up woman. (Well, I am trying to be grown up).
So, only thing I could do with this already cut fabric is to make simple pencil skirt. The pattern I had already tried out for this skirt. Burda Style: 1/2013 model 124
Fabric: quilting cotton
Simple, easy and fast. Nothing spectacular, but the fabric is saved.
What have I learned?
I have to review my dressing style. 
I must stop buying floral, colorful crazy fabrics. 
I must stop choosing infantile patterns. 
I'm not Little Red Riding Hood!
