I spent a good portion of last weekend wandering around the many shops at Clarks Village in Street, Somerset. I was quite restrained (for me) and limited myself to this dress and pair of shoes and a super jazzy pair of trousers for the summer. Unfortunately the mornings are still a bit gloomy here so my coat was still necessary but I'm so glad that I am able to take photos outside again. I think every fashion blogger hates the impracticality of winter!
Coat: Dannimac from my mum, dress: Whistles, shoes: Clarks, bag: Miss Selfridge |
Whistles is one of those shops that I had resigned myself to gazing wistfully out for at least 10 more years before being able to buy anything. I always love their clothes and when I saw this dress on the reduced rail I snapped it up. It was originally £110 (!) but the label said £30 and I finally bought it for £15 and I couldn't be happier. My love of white dresses (especially if they are broderie anglaise!) is well documented and this is a worthy addition to my collection. I love the sleeves and the length is perfect for work, I imagine this will be getting a lot of wear this summer...
A close up of that gorgeous cut-work! I have had this bag for quite a while now and it matches perfectly with my beautiful new shoes from my beloved Clarks.
I have been looking for a pair of pink flats ever since I bought these pink heels for my graduation. I love the colour but heels are completely impractical for everyday wear so I have been looking for the perfect pair of flats ever since... These are a beautiful soft suede with a teeny block heel and so far are ridiculously comfy, here's hoping they don't need much more breaking in! I was so excited when I saw them and I was so happy to finally add them to my wardrobe.
Which brands can you only dream of buying from?

I love Clarks village, we should do a blogger trip! x
What a bargain you got with that dress! I don't think I have ever had anything from Whistles.
I love the pink shoes and bag together as well.
Eeep, you're wearing THE dress. I love it so much, you look so pretty in it! I haven't been to Clark's Village for a few years, I must go this summer.

£15?! bargain. I got a lace one on sale in Jan and have worn it loads since. I do love Whistles x
That dress is so stunning, I'm such a fan of Whistles too - such beautifully cut clothing. This dress was undoubtedly a bargain xxx
Love that dress and such a bargain! :)
oh you look a delight in that pretty dress with pinky accessories. LOVE! x
There are so many aspects of this looks that I love. I adore these colours together and there is something about a white dress which is so chic and classy
I'm almost a bit sick at what a great deal you got - I adore dresses like this and every spring/summer seek the perfect one. I literally just returned a similar one for being so see through and shapeless! You look adorable xox
You are totally pretty in pink! Love it. Very ready for spring.
