Whilst I was out an about today I thought I’d share a couple of photos of my new ASOS Curve Floral Skater Dress. Nothing is styled or planned about these photos. At the moment I’m in Northern UK and its summer a balmy 18 degrees during the day. For a Queenslander thats actually pretty chilly.
Comfort and style are important factors for me, especially whilst travelling. I’m not one of those people who plans their outfits with matching accessories on a daily basis. (this is also why I don’t claim to be a fashionista) Dresses with bold prints are handy to wear because they don’t take up much room in a suitcase and don’t require any accessories.
Today I picked flowers from my Great Grandmas garden in Wales and wandered back from lunch at the pub through a field.
I’m wearing a size 18. Made from polyester theres a fair amount of stretch in the material. When I see that things are made from polyester I generally think its going to be cheap but was pleasantly surprised at how soft the material was. Fashioney people use the term ‘hand feel’. Basically that means when you touch the fabric it feels nice and soft.
The wrap front design and plunge heckling is flattering on my G cup chest and there’s a fair amount of stretch in the material.
I love the long bell sleeves. It’s so 60’s! (although they did get in the way doing the dishes and cooking dinner later in the day)
And because I’m a true adventurer. I’m more than happy to take shortcuts through paddocks even though I’m wearing a dress. Such a lady. (sometimes ha!)
