That's pretty, I like the shape and the way it hangs! The colour is so bold, maybe pale shoes would be nice with it - yellow, pale pink?

Love that dress bobbygirl! How is the sizing? I have a couple of dresses like that and I find I often have to go up a size because I have a huge ribcage .

It's gorgeous! Nude would look great, or red!

Pandoras Twist

I'd go for a metallic shoe. A nice dull gold colour

Belle E. Flops

I'd go for hot pink or else yellow shoes myself! I'm all about colour!!

Got a couple of things in the Dorothy Perkins sale today.

A navy top (£13.50) which looks like this from the front:


And like this from the back:



My first ever pair of skinny jeans (£18):



This super gorgeous adorable pendant (£5.50):



And these earrings (£4):

Bought a lovely floor-length red dress from Chupi in Topshop, but I can't find pictures anywhere! It's jersey material with a scoop neck, very flattering on

I also got a navy dress with blue/purple flower pattern in Om Diva but again, no pictures online And my room is both far too messy and really badly lit for me to take a pic myself.

Got this skirt in Forever21 yesterday, along with a coral cami that was dressed out on the mannequin with it! They only had XS left on the hangars, but the mannequin was in a small, I thought I'd be medium, but tried on the small nonetheless,and voilá! it fit!!



I'm going to wear it with sheer navy tights, coral pumps I got in Dunnes last year, the cami and a cropped denim jacket, soon to be purchased!!!

I also got a dress in Carousel, chocolate boutique brand, but can't find a pic at all online!!


I also bought this online the other night in the Lady Umbrella "no joke Sale"




I have one of their t-shirts already, and the fit is so lovely on it, nice and long, which is always a bonus!!! And shipping is free!!


And finally, I bought my boyfriend's mum this for her birthday from Horse&June the new vintage store on Drury Street. The candle has 85 hours of burn time, and smells delish!!! If you're into vintage clothing in any way, pop in here and have a look!!


Always feels great to support local, Irish businesses as well as places like Forever21!!

Black Bandage Dress (OK, I bought this before Xmas, but forgot about it until I found it in my wardrobe, so it is new, kinda)

Savida, Dunnes Stores - €30

Back of dress


Turquoise dress eBay. The seller never mentioned anything about the elasticated waistband and wore a belt in the pic, so first I knew of the EB was when the dress arrived, it is nice, but I have to get a belt, hard, as most belts are too big on me

Close up of ruffle detail

I'm normally an 8 but had to go up a size for this one. It is very nice on and the colour is very bright !!

Just bought this. Wanted it in red but they were sold out of my size. Think im going to get one of those chicken fillet stick on bras to wear with it im fairly small chested.:rolleyes:

Twee.

OK, this dress looks a bit much here, but it's really lovely on! Without the shrug, it just has little straps. I'm not sure if I'll even wear the shrug with it.

River Island, €30, down from €80

Sibylla

I love the colour Twee, I think it would look great with wedges and without the shrug for a summer look, It's lovely haven't seen it in my local RI.

That is so adorable Twee!

I like the way the shrug and waistband sort of clashes with the floral, I think it makes it look more vintagey or something

@Twee

Uggggh - now I'm starting the day off with a filthy dose of envy, that's beautiful!

lindtee

Love it Twee:) Going to check out River Island later, would love something like that for my son's confirmation.

Twee.

Awh glad you all like it! I was thinking it was a bit crazy looking in the picture! It's in the RI sale, they had a good few in the Henry St Branch yesterday. As far as I know they never got it into the Liffey Valley branch.

I tried it on last night with a tulle underskirt, these shoes and my pillbox hat and it's SO Betty Draper! Now I just need somewhere to wear the damn thing!

Haha yes! I'l wait until there's a bit of heat so I can go bare legged though! The shrug actually looks deadly over a cami top with jeans

lindtee

Went to Mahon earlier and they didn't have Twee's dress in the branch there:(:( If anyone spots it in the Cork City branch can they let me know?

TheFlamingo

Look much much nicer in real life, all vibrant and summery!

lindtee

Got this Hell Bunny Dress on Ebay earlier.

(Actually thinking of wearing it for the confirmation but it may be a bit much with the skulls and its very low cut too:pac:)
€20 delivered and its brand new.

Penneys are doing an excellent bra for smaller chests, thinks its called ultimate plunge or something. Two of my friends have them and they make a huge difference!
