Occasionally certain pieces of clothing become extremely popular with the blogging community and this Very teapot dress is another one of those
blogger specials! Both Sarah and Gemma own it (and look absolutely gorgeous
in it!) and when you see its cute print and flattering shape, you can understand
why it is just so popular. I had a bit of trouble getting hold of a dress in
the right size (if anyone is interested in buying a size 10 version, please let
me know!) but when it arrived, I couldn't have been happier. The fit is true to size (perhaps a little generous
around the bust) and it is really easy to wear. I paired my dress with all
mustard accessories but you could easily pick up some of the other colours in the pattern and pair it with
purple or red too! Very is not a brand I have ever bought from before as I was always put off by the fact it seemed like you had to sign up for store credit to pay for your (fairly expensive) purchases (you don't FYI) but I was really pleased with this dress and I will be keeping an eye out for their sale- I want this dress in every colour and print!
Dress: Very, shoes: c/o Zalando, belt: Miss Selfridge (off a playsuit) |
I am always slightly wary of
dresses with sleeves, they are much more flattering on my less than slender
arms (at least until I get on with actually doing
Sophie’s triceps exercises!)
but as a 'human radiator', I always get far too warm. Luckily these ones are loose enough that your arms don’t get all
claustrophobic (surely this can’t just be me?!) and gently skim over my wobbly bits thanks to some oh so flattering ruching...
I mean just look how flattering this dress is! The shape of this dress reminded me of a classic 1940s tea dress
so I wanted some quite classic shoes to pair with it. These mustard shoes were
sent to me a while ago but I don’t wear them as much as I would like as I always
forget that I have them (oops). I am
always a bit wary of wearing heels when I have to get the train (I blame
falling flat on my face one winter evening for that one!) but this pair are
reassuringly ‘solid’. Mustard can be a difficult colour to wear but I really
love it with navy; it is much more interesting than beige or cream but it still
looks quite classic.
Please ignore the creases in the dress, I have just realised how much this needed ironing! |
Have you succumbed to the lure of this Very nice dress? (har har)
