If you read yesterdays post, you will know I was gifted an item by Very.com from the new Fearne Cotton Collection. And some of you tried to guess which item it was that I chose, well... here you go.
First we went to Cardiff Castle to take some pretty pictures in my new dress which was...
The Seagull Print Vintage Dress!!

It's such a bold print I didn't think it needed a lot else with it so kept it minimal with black tights, simple black pumps, my fur trimmed cardi(it's still cold here in the wind!) and a gold necklace.
It has these cute gold buttons on the front and back and arms, which give it a slight military feel.

And it's longer at the back than at the front, which I was a little sceptical of at first but I actually love how it flows.

I did have to safety pin it at the bust as the cross over was too low with my small chest, but it still looks great I think.
How would you style this?
I am thinking of my frill front sleeveless blouse, waistcoat and brogues next? Any opinions?

That dress is so fabulous! Love the print!
ReplyDeleteLove the dress... maybe pair it with leggings and tall boots? Feed into the military vibe a little more...?
ReplyDeleteOh I love this dress on you! I always worry about the whole bee look when I pair yellow and black together but you make it look classy!
