I’ve been saving these photos for a while now because I wanted to do my how to dye your hair ombre post before putting these up. I wasn’t sure if I would like this dress, but it was in Oxfam (one of the items I left and came back for), and when I first tried it on I thought it was a funny length and I still wasn’t too sure about it, but I thought I’d leave it a few days and see. But recently I’ve been feeling really girly and wanting to wear floaty, flowery, frilly, twirly dresses all the time, so I thought I’d wear this one the other day, and yes, I’ve now decided I love it. Not bad for a £5 dress from a charity shop!
I thought I’d do a few photos with and without the cardigan, because the dress is so pretty and I wanted to show the mesh bit at the top. Also I think the line where the top of the floral bit of the dress is is really pretty, not sure why, but it does!
I love how my hair came out in these photos. The blonde-y gingery-ness of it makes me feel really summery for some reason! I suppose it kind of looks lightened by the sun. I just hope it doesn’t go green or anything…! I’m going to Spain in about a month so I’ll be swimming there, and I’ve heard tales of green hair haha, let me know if you have any experience with this =)
Sorry about how picture heavy this post is! I was just happy with how well these photos came out. I’m hoping to get a proper camera for my birthday though, so I should get even better photos then. But that’s not until September though, oh well, you’ll just have to be patient with my attempts at photography with a cheap camera!
Also, my cardigan is kind of new. My grandma gave me, my sister, my mum and my aunt-to-be vouchers for a catalogue called Wool Overs. I’ve been really wanting a mustard cardigan for ages and this one was pretty and will be really nice over dresses for summer =)
Mustard Cardigan: Wool Overs (Christmas present)
Floral Dress: Charity Shop
Belt: Topshop
Purple Tights: Matalan
