Simply Frocked Up

As soon as I started working in the gallery I realized I have a whole wardrobe full of over the top dresses and pinup frocks but I'm seriously lacking in work/summer/spring attire!

So off I headed to Simply Be and found the two most perfect little frocks that made my heart melt!

Leopard print, frills and the most adorable and work suitable necklines - perfect for my needs! I'm wearing these styles in a 14 and they are the perfect fit. The length is rather short but I'm actually showing my legs of much more these days and I've shown bellow the option of wearing this style with stockings.

They are light enough to wear all summer and look brilliant with stockings and tights and can be layered with cardigans, wraps and jackets in the winter.

Floral prints and ruffles are always a perfect combination and honestly I can't choose between the both for my favorite. I paired this with one of the many brilliant belts from Simply Be but you also get a satin tie belt with each dress.

The classic rose print is sadly sold out now (it was that hot it flew off the shelf) but you can find other prints and more from the AX Paris brand here.

I now want all and any prints that this style comes in. It's so easy to wear, cute and so comfortable! 


Can't shop from your country? 

For Australians who are wanting to pick up a few items there are many fantastic postage forwarding sites on the net that for a fee will give you an address to enter into the check out and forward on packages from stores that usually would not ship down here. Some even set up payment through paypal if you can't use your credit card.  For UK shops see - My-Uk-Mail and UK Brands Worldwide. For US - MyUSUSmail1 and US2Me.

Thanks to the dream team - Lucky and Rice for snapping these shots of me!

What she wore - Sunday Best

Every now and then I like my outfit that much that I talk my lovely man into snapping a few candid images of it. Today was one of those days and my oh my did mother nature bring out her big guns right in time for these shots!

The perfect little floral summer dress! I'm having hit after hit with floral frocks from Torrid this summer, I've never owned so much print. I've always loved floral and bright prints but I've never been sure of what suits me, now I'm swooning for prints like this.

I'm wearing this in a size 12 and unlike most of the dresses I've recieved from torrid this actually fits my bust and waist perfectly. Being an hour glass I can have too much room in the waist but this is a perfect fit. The bust is sweet yet shows great cleavage and the spaghetti straps are adjustable for different size busts. The smocked back it actually nips you in at the waist but I've also added the black bow belt to accentuate my shape even more.

The cardigan (size 0) is a basic but I think I'll wear this over so many tanks and little dresses. The back has a black lace panel at the back giving it a little bit more of a rock and roll edge.

After the success of the last two Torrid belts I've had I gave into this adorable bow belt. It's 3 inches wide so it is thick enough to give you a great shape. The whole structure of the belt other than the bow is elastic which sadly means this is a little to large for me. This is nothing that a few stitches can't fix.

I can't wait to wear this as the weather cools down as well. Pairing floral with leather biker jackets and knew high boots is my favorite Autumn style so I'm actually excited for the next two seasons!


Now don't forget to enter my Torrid Giveaway for an amazing Queen of Heartz dress!
