I thought I'd left my floral phase back in first year of University: y'know, when all Topshop stocked were florals? After spending the evening at a Boohoo bloggers' party with Sarah and Aisling a few weeks ago, I chose this dress to take home with me and I'm in love with it. As of late, I've been much more drawn to leggings and trousers, even reverting back to jeans and succumbing to J Crew pixie pant lust, so a perfectly feminine dipped hem dress feels a little out of my depth. I adore the red cherry blossom print, the lace panel on the back and the winningly floaty material, now I'm just waiting for another occasion to wear this to! For reference, I wore this on Father's Day yesterday, when I celebrated Father's Day at home while Dad worked ten hours at our restaurant... (And the Best Daughter Award goes to...!)
Today I'm over in London as per usual, interning and gazing (kind of) at beautiful clothes, shoes and bags for eight hours. It could be worse! It's my last week at InStyle and I've genuinely really enjoyed it, despite finding it hard to settle in and get to grips with the routine. I've learned so much and had a lot of laughs along the way, and it's opened my eyes to new areas of the industry that I'd love to pursue. I'd been hoping to fit in a few more events in now that I'm back in the area, but I'm honestly so tired when 6pm rolls around that I'd be a sleepy unsociable mess! Hopefully this will pass as I love spending time with fellow bloggers! ♥

D'aw thank you so much Laura!
DeleteI adore this floral pattern, it's so Summer-y! Much love for those flatforms too, how easy are they to walk in? I was thinking of getting that pair from H&M for my placement xoxo
ReplyDeleteIt's so pretty, the cherry blossom print makes it a tiny bit different to the other florals out there (: they're super comfy and easy to walk in, a little weird to get used to at first, but would totes recommend! xx
DeleteThis dress is beautiful! :)

It's so perfect isn't it?! Such a subtle detail (:
DeleteYour dress is beautiful! I love wedges, too bad I can never work them haha. You're stunning <3
ReplyDeleteThank you! <3
DeleteThis is gorgeous! I love the lace insert at the back, I'm often tempted by those sorts of dresses where the front and back is different lengths, but I can never decide if they suit me! Enjoy your time in London :)

Deletesuch a lovely cut of the dress, and the print too is also extra summery. we just need the sun fully now!
ReplyDeletei'm glad you enjoyed your intern.. but i can only imagine how tough it is to adapt to such a busy environment.. and talk about attempting the london commute everyday.. corr not for me!x
I know right ;) everyone get your sun dance on! Thanks Katy, it's been a tough month to be honest, the commute added on top of other things hasn't been ideal, but it'll be worth it in the end! Hope everything is going well with ze house and ze new job :D xx

Thank you Iida, so nice to hear from you, glad you enjoy my blog (:
DeleteIt looks great, lovely that you have kept with the magazine sub style. It;s so fun isn't it?! I loved learning how to code it. I think you suit anything to be quite honest, you're one of those girls that makes anything look stunning. If I didn't love you, I'd hate you xxxx
ReplyDeleteThank you Gem! Ah you know me, always one to step it up if I can (: d'aww Gem you're too kind, I think you'd say otherwise if you've ever seen me attempt to wear a hat ;) LOVE YOU GIRLY. xxxxxxx
DeleteAw such a lovely dress. The lace detailing is so pretty too! You really suit it, the neutral tone is very nice on you.

Thank you Caroline (: I'm exhausted all the time from the commute, but my last week is going nicely!
DeleteLove the dress, can't help but think it would look even more stunning with pale canvas wedges or espadrille wedges. :)
ReplyDeleteI've never been that attracted to Boohoo stuff. I don't know why but you pull it off really well. :)
Yes, espadrille wedges for sure! I have no idea where mine have disappeared to, otherwise I would've worn them ;) thanks Yin! Their clothes are very much throwaway fashion, but this was so cute I couldn't resist! xx
