Why is it that when you're going somewhere you can never find anything to wear but when you have nothing to go to you see so many outfits?!!!
Last weekend I went to a wedding, so obviously, needed a new outfit,(None of the 50 dresses I currently own would clearly cut it) and I struggled. Like really struggled. Did I go coord? Dress? Jumpsuit? Culottes? Ah! Such a stress. I'm not a very girly girl and NEVER wear the kind of girly floaty floral pieces expected for the likes of a wedding. Black is more my scene but as I am reminded all the time "it's not a funeral".
So I went on the hunt for a pretty but edgy, floral but grungy outfit. Easy right?!
I went everywhere and couldn't find a thing... I love a skirt and top combo... so I bought 3 (oops) but nothing was right. (Although they will be kept, "just Incase" :P) I realised I had to give in and go for a girly dress...it was the easiest option!
So just when I had given up hope I decided to try a shop I have very rarely been in...Dorothy Perkins. The first dress I seen was perfect!!...it is very girly fitted with an Aline hem...floral...pink...but with an oriental feel. Completely different to my usual style but I love it!!...it was so nice to get dressed up and proves that you should never get stuck in a style rut and be open to stepping out of your comfort zone. It's also very important not to dismiss a brand or shop because it's not "you". You never know what you might find!!!
Happy shopping girls!
Speak soon
