I've got some more plus size occasionwear for you - This time it's something a bit pared back and cool. Think chic city wedding followed by a merlot or twelve in a classy wine bar.
Occasion Dress* - Live Unlimited Jacket - ASOS Bag - New Look (Similar) Shoes - ASOS |
I've always seen Live Unlimited as grown up and elegant, with its abstract mono print and jersey turn up sleeves, this dress is no exception to the rules. I dont know about you but I find a mock-wrap dress infinitely less worrying than a true wrap. No chance of flashing anyone or getting something stuck in your knickers/down the toilet...
I tend to stay away from asymmetry in fashion, I'm just a very symmetrical person you see. Despite this, I love how the top layer of the dress drapes, taking it from a Tshirt dress to something much more interesting. Paired with a blazer and accessories in a primary colours, you have something simple but striking.
I think everyone should have a dress like this in their wardrobe, it's been fab for work (Purely because I have no occasions!) and is like the frock equivalent of that perfect fitting t-shirt you pull on and feel instantly fab in. Live Unlimited have some beautiful dresses for the Summer - This tropical print shirt dress is Miami Vice perfection.
I just need to take this chance to say that I'm so sorry I've been AWOL dear reader(s), I have no reasoning other than the fact that I've been beyond the busiest person in the world. However, I have some time in the sun coming which I'm hoping it will lend itself well to showing you some of my frankly incredible holiday wardrobe (Honestly, I've never been so excited about a suitcase!) I also have a rather dramatic spray tan so even if you just check my Instagram to laugh at someone whose face is the same colour as my hair, please don't write me off just yet guys!!!
