Wedding Season

February, the time of year in Australia for weddings. Perhaps that’s because it’s the end of summer and the weather is still hot and for those romantics, Valentines Day also falls in February making it the love month.

I love going to weddings. I must say it’s not because of the union itself, I don’t consider myself to be a romantic  as such. For me it’s all about the different types of fashion and style people have put together. It’s also my time to put on some hair extensions, put on some false lashes and feel glamorous!

I don’t know about you guys, but I never know what to wear. I mean yes a dress of course because  I love dresses, but it’s hard to find the right one. I feel like a long dress can be too dressy and sometimes short dresses are too casual!  However when you are looking for one last minute and there aren’t too many options, you go with your gut.

But this dress, when I first laid my eyes on it, I knew it was the perfect dress for a wedding party. It has the illusion of lace and it looks classy and elegant. I can also wear it many times as it fits so many different occasions.

The fabric is not my usual style of stretch, but a more tailored fabric with a zipper down the back. It has detachable straps which I didn’t wear. I thought it was easier just wearing my bra as the straps as it looked the same.

The dress is a little pricey, but for a dress that you can keep for years and still wear, I would say it’s worth the money.

The Ultimate Denim Dress

When will a denim dress fail you? Never!

I first saw this dress in my Facebook feed as an ad. Usually these ads annoy me but when I saw this dress my first thought was, ‘please be from a plus size store!’ Sure enough it was from City Chic. (I am not sponsored by City Chic or being paid for this post)

I actually bought this dress online without trying it on. I ordered and crossed my fingers that the picture wasn’t misleading. Once it arrived and I tried it on I loved it. It was exactly as I has seen it on the model online and the length, oh yes the length was exactly how I wanted it.

The sweetheart top, oh so cute, and those buttons from top to bottom just look fantastic. The wrap around the middle I love, as it brings your waist in to show it off. But wait, there’s more. My most favourite bit of the dress, it has pockets! Oh I love pockets on dresses!!

You can never go wrong with a denim dress as it suits most occasions. It’s also a classic as denim is always in style. The only downfall of this dress is that the straps are detachable so they easily come off. Its great for those who are smaller busted and can wear the dress strapless. It was a little pricey as it wasn’t on sale, but I must say, totally worth the buy!
