House of Fraser

A couple of days ago I was browsing the House of Fraser website and off course I went straight to the dress collection and I was quite surprised to find out how many lovely dresses they offer. I hadn't actually heard of it, but I recently got notified with an e-mail and I'm sure glad they did.

I decided it would be nice to portray some of the dresses by House of Fraser I liked and how I would wear them. As summer is coming up (I do hope so, cause the weather has been dreadful lately, cross your fingers dears) I chose the floral theme and you all know now that I'm addicted with florals.

The first collage is more ladylike and perfect for those hot floral days. To complete the look you can wear sandals or loafers and if it gets a bit colder a crochet cream vest or a short denim jacket.

The second collage is more festival themed. I toughened the look a bit with denim details, and you can add some boots and even a leather jacket. 

I love these both looks equally, but it's just to showcase the fact you can go both ways with a floral dress, cute or a bit tougher. And one more tip, if the floral print is very busy, tone down the accessories, to make sure it doesn't go over the top!

Be sure to check out the website, cause they tons more of these dresses, it took me ages to choose just these. 

Love!

NEW in

I had a couple of days off work this week and decided to treat myself and went shopping. After looking at the following picture I realised I am a floral addict. Whenever I walk into a store, I'm just drawn to all those pretty florally things. 

I finally found some black highwaisted jeans too, I had been searching for a long time, but every shop I went to, they didn't have any in my size, but this time I got lucky. 

The one thing I truly love the most are the boots on the second picture. I found them on a flea market (told you in the earlier post) and they were only five euro's, such a bargain. I thought I was going home empty-handed that Sunday, but at the last stall I saw these beauties and practically jumped at them.

I can't believe it's summer already, next week is the festival Rock Werchter and it marks the beginning of summer holidays for a lot of people, so looking forward to that. 

Now I'm going to watch an old movie about teen witches, gotta love those friday night movies.  Have a very lovely weekend peeps!
