The true story of a girl who got all dressed up with nowhere to go

Dress by Untold, DIY earrings, Dorothy Perkins ring

I got all dressed up to stay in and read, because... why not? Life is short.

This dress was on sale, down to 102£ from 170£. It fits perfectly, and I like that it actually has sleeves, so I don't have to ruin the look with a cardigan.
It's 100% Viscose though, I would have preferred a different material, and while I think it's okay for the sale price, personally I wouldn't have paid full price for it. But all in all, it's still great.

Thanks for the visit :)

  1. Well and why not indeed? lately I've been in my pajamas more often than not and in some day I just need to put on a nice outfit and do my make-up. It just makes me feel better!:)
    The dress is very nice and so are the accessories.;)
    Love,

  2. i just love it! dressing up to read is so civilised and chic - i aspire to one day having such an experience,i started my day fresh and clean and am now currently covered in several bits of nastiness and ready to slip into something warm and unattractive(must try harder!!) - viva la chic x

  3. You look so chic and lady like in this one! Love it. But £170 does seem very steep! Glad you got a good bargain. I really love that nail polish on you, and I hope you're feeling better hun :)

  4. The dress is adorable! It's almost impossible to find a pretty dress with short sleeves...

  5. I see no wrong in dressing for yourself at all, whenever I do it I notice it lifts up my mood and whenever I stop doing it I also notice I tend to be less excited about my day. You look beautiful as always, that dress is a beautiful piece I must say!=)

  6. That dress is so lovely, and it really is fantastic that it has sleeves.

    I think we should all dress up more for everyday life.. what's the point of having a closet full of pretty things that we only wear once or twice?
