Style Imitating Art- The Royal Worcester teapot- Second outfit

Hello there,
Remember I posted an outfit the other day based on this wonderful teapot? 

Remember Daenel chose this beautiful Royal Worcester tea pot as the inspiration.
Isn't it gorgeous!

I loved this teapot so much I decided to make up a second outfit based on it. One that perhaps is a little less obvious that the inspiration came from here.  It doesn't have to be a direct recreation of the art (and you're not getting me in a Teapot outfit so stop thinking about it!)
Here's what you get instead:

I decided to start with this pretty bird print Dorothy Perkins dress. I haven't worn it in a while as it's been Winter until April so I knew that this would be great to recreate the bird print, even if the colours are a bit different.
From this point, I noticed that the leaves on the dress are a shade of pale blue which links to another section of the teapot, so I added these pale blue shell earrings I've had for about 15 years and a blue shell bracelet.
To add a subtle nod to the black and bronze section of the teapot, I added this black and bronze headband from Primark (also had it a long time).

Finally, the touches of gold were recreated in the same way as my previous outfit by the necklace and bracelet but this time, as it was SUCH  a hot day, I decided to wear my gold sandals from Primark. I bought these back in 2010 for our music camp production of The Boys from Syracuse in which I had a lead part as a noble Grecian lady - you can see the outfit HERE 




What do you think?
