SUMMER IS ACTUALLY HERE!!!! I can’t quite believe it! And that means Pimms, beer gardens, and a spot of sun bathing! I’m lucky enough to have a communal private garden that no one else in my block of flats cares to visit, and so last weekend I threw on a bikini and set off to my little spot of sunshine to settle down with a good book and some iced water. And what better dress to throw on over my bikini than this one:
The Lovedrobe beige antique inspired lace and floral dress.
I went for a size 20 in this dress, and it didn’t look overly generous in the bust. I was spot on with this prediction, and even in a 20 it proved touch and go size wise.
I think a 22 may have been better in this dress, but with my non padded bikini and loose fitting belt, the 20 sufficed nicely.
The dress is a gorgeous floral print with pretty lace detailing. The lace around the neckline did feel a little scratchy and rough, and I feel like it may have irritated me had I wore it for much longer than I did.
The length was ideal for a casual day of sunbathing in my garden with very few people around, however, I would probably start to feel paranoid about my legs if I were out and about somewhere busier.
The sleeves are nice and spacious and not at all restrictive.
The dress has three buttons on the bust, making it perfect for showing a bit of cleavage and ideal for breast feeding mummies.
The skirt hung nicely, and didn’t blow up and overall the dress was nice and light. It really was a perfect dress for a hot summer’s day!
If you also fancy trying out this dress or anything else on the Livedrobe site then you have until the end of the month to get 15% off. Use the code ‘FFFB’ at the checkout.
Oh my God, you look so fabulous in this! Really stunning!! 🙂 I love the dress and I feel very jealous that you have summer because I’m sitting under two doonas trying not to freeze my ass off right now!
Wow. That dress is beautiful!!!
lovely dress ❤
Firstly, you look great in this dress and the pictures are beautiful. Secondly, I’ve been looking through your most recent post and you look great in all of the dresses, especially the blue dress you were sent. I love retro inspired dresses as they shapes are usually really flattering and add a sexy edge to dress.
