Dress - River Island (old) | Shoes - Topshop
One of the few dresses I own and love, even though it's gotten a little bit smaller and I've gotten a little bit bigger so the fit isn't as roomy and smocky as it once was! But it's such a lovely, light material and I adore the buttons that go all the way down. Definitely a classic that I'll be wearing for years (providing both of us stay the same size!)
Yesterday after my hospital scan I did go to Matalan and even though they had lots of lovely stuff I was very good and didn't buy anything. Then lots of family came round for dinner which was lovely also. Yesterday was just a really nice day in general apart from when I got tagged in photos from my old work's Christmas party, I thought I'd gotten away with it but noooo they finally surfaced six months later. Does anyone else's heart just stop when a notification pops up from Facebook on your phone saying 'You have been tagged in a photo'...the worst! Still, it's nice to see the memories because I definitely can't remember much of that night at all.
Today I'd like to get a few chores done but I downloaded The Sims 3 last night so I know how my day'll be going instead. How much of an unemployed bum am I? I lost my discs ages ago when I moved rooms and was devo but it's only £7.49 to download on Origin (thank you Ellis for the tip off!) Hope your day will be more productive but just as enjoyable as mine.

Such a cute dress:) And yeah....I dread those dang FB tagged photos. You never know what might pop up!
ReplyDeleteThe print on that dress is so lovely, I need more monochrome florals in my life! The button detail is super cute too. Facebook tags are also my nemesis, I feel like they should have a feature where you have to approve the tag first before it pops up on your timeline...
ReplyDeleteLove the print on this dress! And I get the same when I get a tagged in photo notification, it's even worse if my phone internet is playing up and it won't load!

you look lovely in this dress josie! and you're most certainly making me want some sandals!x
ReplyDeleteOmg your skin is flawless. Thankfully smocks are forgiving so I'd say you've got a way to go on the waistline before it doesn't fit at all! My day IS as productive as yours actually because I'm not moving from bed and binging OITNB.

This gorgeous dress was made for you Josie! <3
ReplyDeleteI love the Hawaiian print, such a nice twist on the cliche floral stuff the shops always churn out, makes a fab change IMO!
Sounds like you're having a fab week, which makes me dead happy ;-) Haha oh my gosh YES! Facebook tagging just resonates with mortification doesn't it?! The only time I ever got out and partied (I really have no social life!!) I managed to get tagged doing dodgy moves looking the worst for wear. Why was Facebook invented again o.O
The Sims, ahh love it!

This dress looks lovely on you and it's nice to see a tropical print in darker colours, I've been looking for something like this cos I'm not really one for the rave coloured tropical prints! And can I just say how flawless your skin looks, it's gorgeous!! :) xx

The dress has this quirky vintage look to it, I love it! I am on the hunt for one! I absolutely hate being tagged in pictures especially when I look like I stepped off planet ugly in them looool I swiftly removed all of them off my fb the other day as it happens lol! x
ReplyDeleteps. thanks for the lovely comment on my blog :)
Such a lovely day dress, so so pretty, you're looking rather tanned too Josie! Hope your scan went ok and the results are all good. I know the feeling of Facebook dread paha, though I care a lot less now about unflattering photos than I did when I was younger! I love seeing all the memories in Facebook photos, it's so nostalgic to scroll through them all. Don't tempt me with the Sims!!! It's far too easy to get addicted to, I'm a sucker for getting infinite money and spending four years building my dream home then killing off the characters in a fire by taking away the door.. haha! xxx
