Outfit Post | My Fairy Princess Dress

Whilst I can’t wait to share some of my holiday snaps with you lovely lot, I couldn't resist writing about my massively gorgeous new dress first. It’s always such a yummy feeling to come home from a trip away to a mountain of post, and as soon as I spotted this package I couldn’t wait to rip it open to reveal the contents.... 
Dress: c/o OASAP Loafers: Camden Market Satchel: The Vintage Set





 You will probably notice a trend with my outfits…I very rarely opt for the skin tight dresses or skirts; I just don’t find them overly flattering on my figure. Instead, my love lies with anything floaty or ‘swishy’ (yes, I went for the word swishy). That’s why this dress is my idea of heaven; I must admit I feel like a bit of a woodland fairy princess in this. And let's face it, what girl doesn't want to feel like a fairy princess?! (please say I'm not alone here..) Not only does it tick my swishy wishes, it is literally the easiest thing to wear ever. It’s perfect for this summer weather we appear to be having, and will slot nicely into my winter wardrobe too, teamed with some black tights and brogues.

The lace detail to the front and petticoat is a particular favourite; but the very best part about this dress is that it costs only £24!!! YES, £24 I spluttered at the screen when I read it too. The intricate detail alone makes it worthy of a far heftier price tag in my eyes. And the quality is something that overtakes some of the top high street brands. If you like this little gem, you can pick it up from OASAP here. 
I couldn’t wait to wack out my little satchel again, and thought it would work well with my Camden loafers. Infact, I think I might wear it again this evening to see Michael Mcintyre (cue excitement overload!!).

What do you think? Are you too a swishy dress lady?

      This dress would be great for Autumn, paired with some burgundy lipstick, some burgundy tights and tan brogues. Ooo hello Autumn! Now I'm not feeling quite so bad about the fact summer is almost done xx

    3. 4 September 2012 at 16:44

      Tan brogues and tights were my thoughts exactly :) Autumn/Winter is definitely my favourite time of year; although not sure I could ever pull off burgundy lippy :( xx

    Very pretty and cute but also with a nice touch of elegance, which is very refreshing at the moment. Keep doing your thing, you're a real individual as is your blog :)

I'm not one for bodycons (and people are always surprised when they see me in a bikini.. because they can't work out why i wear baggy/flowing dresses.. URM BECAUSE THEY'RE NICER!!!) but enough about my stories of life. BASICALLY THIS DRESS IS AMAZING.xx
