Let your style make a statement

I was looking through some old pictures recently and I came across this one. It made me stop and think about the occasion, how I was feeling at the time and what the picture now said to me.

They say a picture paints a thousand words

It was my friend’s wedding and the suggested dress attire, if I remember correctly, was cream. I must admit I was a little resentful at being told what to wear, particularly as I didn’t have anything of that colour in my wardrobe.

And then I remembered this dress and the way it made me feel

There is something rather sensual about this dress. I can’t quite put my finger on it but the coolness of the cotton against my skin makes me feel gorgeous and when I add some red accessories to the mix, I’m walking on air. I am not concerned about how other people see me, I look into the mirror and just love the style and sassiness of the woman looking back.

Bought on a trip to the US, this is one of my favourite purchases, a dress for all seasons and all sizes. It is a 100% cotton wrap dress with a Marilyn Munroe type skirt that makes me feel really girly when I twirl (it would be rude not to) and because of its wrap nature the style is flattering and I can confidently wear it and still look fabulous even when I’m carrying a little extra weight.

We should all have a dress that is good for all seasons in our wardrobe.
