Hello my lovelies,

Back to work today! Really not impressed with the weather at the moment, it's so wet and cold and disgusting - what happened to our summer?? I've had to dig out the black opaques again to avoid freezing my legs off; I won't get a tan until my holiday in November at this rate...

I absolutely love this dress from Dorothy Perkins (obviously!). It was another one of those dresses I fell in love with in store, but totally missed out on buying it while it was available (I blame my student budget at the time!). Eventually I tracked it down on eBay in my size and I'm so glad I did, it's exactly my type of dress! High-necked, cinched waist and floaty skirt, not to mention the polka dot print! They also do it in a teal colour which I'm quite tempted by as it's not a colour I own already. I tend to stick to red-based colours; maybe time to step outside my comfort zone?
