EMBROIDERED SHIFT DRESS

. THE ITEM I’VE BEEN LUSTING OVER ALL SUMMER : THE EMBROIDERED SHIFT DRESS .

More often than not I fall in love with an item, but for months and months admire from afar, until one day breaking and deciding it’s about time I just gave in and owned the item. The Phillip Lim Pashli for example, along with a whole load of other items in my wardrobe. The most recent of my obsessions was this French Connection dress which I first spotted at Coachella (not actually there sadly, but from someone wearing it there). From that moment I became obsessed, and finally gave in last week and decided that if I’ve been thinking about it for this long … it’s meant to be.

. FRENCH CONNECTION EMBROIDERED SHIFT DRESS . REISS MARLEY ANKLE BOOTS . ASOS FEDORA .

And fortunately it seems to have been a good purchase, as not only have I managed to get quite a bit of wear out of it, it’s also received tons of complements every time i’ve worn it. It’s the perfect baby doll shift dress for a laid back festival style look, but equally for Autumn and Winter with thick tights, the perfect ankle boot (check – these are my new Marley ankle boots from Reiss, ankle boot dreams in reality) & a big cosy fur coat (my new fall sleeveless fur coat is the perfect throw on). I decided the dress was a classic investment item … and so bought it, i did.

Do you ever find yourself longing for items for months and months before finally giving in? What do you think of this embroidered baby doll number.
