Wedding Season
I have two weddings to look forward to this year (both include hog roasts at the reception – oh my) therefore the dress hunt has begun. I have three options – working with what I already have (I do have a trip to Australia to save for), borrow from an obliging friend, or purchase a new dress (I have no shame and will happily wear the same dress at both weddings – accessorise darling!). If it is the latter, I’m going to raid my wardrobe to see what I can sell to fund a new one. Conscience-free shopping is the best.
When I’m on the hunt for something new I use a super website called ShopStyle, a little App I have on my iPod Touch. The website is fine of course but I find the App much easier to navigate. ShopStyle basically curates all the shops you love in one place. You want a red dress? Type it in, refine your search, and it will bring up all the red dresses you desire from a large variety of stores/brands. Find one you absolutely love? Simply add it to your favourites and/or click the £ button and if the item is put on sale (lets face it, most items are in the end) it will let you know. I’ve bought various things at half the price because of this super website and it includes homewares too – what more can I say?
So anyhoo, here are a few dresses that I have my eye on – it’s all about patience!
I feel an eBay clear out coming on…

I love the first two in particular. It’s great to have weddings to look forward to.
P.S. How did I not know about Shopstyle? I’m downloading the app immediately!!

Do it! I use it all the time. Type in anything and see what comes up! Just found a perfect parka for half the price because of it! 🙂 xx

I can see a pattern emerging in the shapes you like hahaha. The navy one or the one underneath it get my vote.

I love that Orla Kiely dress. I have been coveting it for a while. I also love the ASOS one, and the DP one with hearts. They have some lovely dresses just now 🙂
