The Printed Dress

By on 18:12
It takes something pretty spectacular to detract me from my usual uniform of black and white. Exhibit A: Mary Katrantzou inspired prints.

The pastel colours depicting retro interiors and the modern take on the extended split shift dress flatters the female form in new and exciting ways. Forever New's gorgeous "Alizia Mirror Print Dress" is a stunning example of the printed shift dress. Trans-seasonal and perfect for wearing to any semi-formal event (like Serena did for Blair's wedding shower), match it with pearls and metallic heels to give a serious edge to a girly look.

The Mullet Dress

By on 19:10


Of all the trends that have cropped (hehe) up over the past few years, the "mullet" dress has to be one of the most contested styles. With a cropped front, displaying the females most flattering asset (her kneecaps) I speculate over the longevity of this hemline.
The only label that could make me question my firmly held beliefs - Lover of course. I had the pleasure of trying on the gorgeous "Gothic" dress, but decided the small fortune I would have to spend on it could be someone else pleasure.


In the meantime, I'll have to settle for the Topshop version.
