It'd make a cute tunic top if you shorten it a bit so that you can wear cute shorts under it.

If you want to use the pattern as a whole dress, I'd suggest adding shirring to the middle. Then check the hemline again after that, because at these short lengths sometimes the front or back of the skirt ends up shorter/longer than the other side (due to butts and boobs). The waist-less version looks kinda frumpy without a well-defined waist, especially in that weight of fabric they made the model's version in, and the issue with the front or back sometimes ending up shorter/longer than the other side means using a belt to define the waist afterwards is a bit less ideal (unless you're pretty flat on both sides)

As for upping the cutesy flair, it helps if you start thinking of the final coord you want to use it in. The lace and floral fabric is a good start, but to really get to finish line you need cute shoes, cute bag, nice hair style, etc etc. The floral looks cute, but do use a drapey material so that it flows nicely and doesn't sitck out oddly. .
