I first spotted this lush dress in Primark a few weeks back and vowed to return to it if the weather ever heated up (and if it was still on the rails). Summer has since graced us with its presence (yay!) so I happily threw it in my basket last Saturday and hit Oxford Street one excited fashion bunny. But when I tried it on at home....*drum roll*....I hated it on me. Something just felt wrong. I never try anything on in Primark (that queue is wayyy too lonnnng to contemplate) so everything I buy from there is like playing Fashion Roulette. Most of the time it doesn't matter much as, of course, it's like, silly cheap in there. But I basically think this beaut has gotta go back from whence it came. I thought I'd share my piccies anyway so you could assess for yourselves...hit me up with some (marginally) brutal honesty :) You may have seen Miss Lily Melrose working this look (below) or you may have also seen the dress on Asos (ditto below)....just to prove that this super-pretty frock can look very lovely indeed! Have a divinely hot and sunny weekend, catch you soon xx
