Just Cavalli | Just Cavalli Poppy Print Satin Corset Dress at ASOS

Saturday, July 18th, 2009

It’s so pretty and summery and sexy and gorgeous and… I have to have it! The colours will make it look like spring even when it is pissing it down (I’m in the UK so that happens all too often…) Just Cavalli have done some awfull things with animal print in their time, but now all is forgiven. Now all I am wondering is how I get my female hips into it

On sale at ASOS for £195 reduced from £390. Even with the reduced price tag it is still going in with the coutour (meaning “I cannot afford right now”) as it will be several paydays till I have saved up for this delicacy.

Friday, July 17th, 2009

Oh yes yes yes yes yes! So sexy, so marilyn but still long enough to wear to work on casual friday. If sex and the city was still running, Carrie and Charlotte would be fighting for this dress.

At $174.99 plus postage from the US and probably plus import tax it is in the pricy end of affordable, but oh so useable!

Monsoon Accessorize – Imogen Dress

Friday, July 17th, 2009

A ray of sunshine! Orange is back – if you dare. This otherwise classic shaped dress has funky tailoring round the midrife and lay ins round the neck to boobs that will give a nice shape and effect. £75 from Monsoon it is a little expensive as it is not a versatile piece, but still… Wear it to a wedding and then reuse it at a dinner party with a black pashmina. Try http://www.pashminainternational.com for all the colours- and free delivery! Yay!

Monsoon Accessorize – Viscount Shift Dress

Friday, July 17th, 2009

Okay, so I’m usually not much of a pink girl, but this dress is so cute and would make me feel soo little girly! Perfect for drinks with a pair of high heels. Probably black  to balance out the cuteness and definitly sky-high. Hmm… now I have to shop for those too. I haven’t tried this dress on and it could be a hit or miss depending on how much shape it gives you. I like an excentuated waist and do not like feeling like I might as well be wearing a black bag.

Bondage in Pink – Untie me!

Picnic In Paris Dress -Mod Retro Indie Clothing & Vintage Clothes

Friday, July 17th, 2009

Fot the ultimate unique vintage dresses one of your first stops should be modcloth.com. This Picnic in Paris dress is so summer romantic! Where do you go for your vintage fix?

In cooler weather I would wear a white polo neck and shear tight to keep warm, but if the weather permitted, then just some red, yellow or orange sandals. Do not wear with leggings as this dress lenght will make your legs look shorter.

So in luuuuuuurve!

Make sure you check out the other dresses as there are others (and I am sure some of them will be posted) that are break-the-bank amazing!
