Witchy

DRESS: Pop Boutique at ASOS (similar) SOCKS:Sock It To Me HAIR CLIP:Hair Dessert
BAG:Sun Jellies SHOES: Forever 21 SUNGLASSES: Forever 21 (sold out, similar 1 & 2)

You might not know this, since I am always dressed in ensembles that call to mind Technicolor throw up, but I actually really love black clothing too!

This dress has a distinctly witchy, Wednesday Adams vibe, and though I feel like those type of dresses have been cropping up everywhere lately, the empire waist detailing really made it stand out to me. When I hear "empire waist" I usually think of renaissance era dresses with pillowing skirts (which are lovely for the time period but not exactly something I would personally wear…!), so the fact this dress has a subtle empire waist but still manages to have a fit and flare silhouette really intrigued me. I was extremely impressed with the fit and absolutely love the dress! It's currently sold out, but keep your eye on the product page - ASOS has a habit of relisting pieces people have returned…! (which is how I got mine!) *___*

I paired it with pops of pink in the form of my accessories: a darling heart clip by Hair Dessert being one of them! I am so obsessed with Aiyana's designs - they are so so cute and well crafted!

As for my socks, is this not one of the cutest prints you've ever seen?! Cats, in cameos! Adorable! Finally, my bag was sent to me by Sun Jellies - it is incredibly roomy and lightweight - I'm smitten!

  15. Very cute dress, I love empire waist lines, they are perhaps my favourite to wear. Very 60's. And such cute socks and handbag!
