Something a little bit different here on my blog today, and the first in a new series (whoop!) so here goes… I’ve had lots and lots of you asking me about the lovely dress I wore for last weeks Create & Craft shows on Saturday…
I must admit, I’m soooo happy so many of you loved it as much as I did, it had everything I loved in a dress, great attention to detail with pretty cuffs, peter pan collar and velvet bow, gorgeous colours, navy blue and forest green, swoon! a decent length skirt (at 5ft tall I REALLY shouldn’t have to buy dresses in the tall section, but often I do just to keep my botty warm and decent! I feel for you taller ladies trying to find a good dress length!) and a fitted top half – being an hourglass shape, if things aren’t quite fitted in to my waist I end up looking like I have a maternity smock on!
It also had that cute vintage vibe to it which I just love, I’m a big fan of vintage (as you all probably know by now! lol) and it reminded me of the dress worn by Shirley Temple in ‘A Little Princess’ one of my favourite films (and books!) of all time – I think it was the white collar and cuffs that did it.
