I didn't really have the intentions of buying a peplum dress, but some things just work out that way. It was a birthday gift, found by me in TKMaxx. I was browsing through the dress racks for nothing in particular and just saw the label sticking out & it said the word 'Doll' on the label, so I knew this dress and I were meant to be!! I pulled the dress out from all the other clothes and decided I liked it. So home it went with me as my last birthday gift (I had birthday money, so that's why I was picking out my own gift). And on one bright and sunny day, I decided to go out for a walk with it on and see how it fit, which is what I do with all my new clothes, I like to see how they move and think of how I might wear them in different ways, walking in nature helps me think better and more creatively. The dress fits like a glove and is quite soft inside and out. But, a little plain for me, so I intend on getting some Art Nouveau fabric and dolling it up to look different :) I like to do that with a lot of my clothes! But, anyways...I hope all of you have a great day & the sun is shining for you wherever you may be!!
Lots of loves
xoxo

ReplyDeleteWell the dress is amazing and really flatters your figure. You look gorgeous!! I also was a bit reluctant about peplum style but this weekend I finally bought a peplum top... It's so feminine!! ;-)

Oh, this dress looks so good on you.
ReplyDeletei know what you mean - I am really not a fan of the peplum, which is why I have avoided trying any of it on at any point.
You look so great in this dress!

ReplyDeleteIt looks fantastic on you! I used to have a navy peplum suit that I adored. I love the little flounce and how it drapes over the midriff. :)
Have a great day sweetie and thanks for the birthday wishes!♥
amazing otfit!

Kizzy, you look EXQUISITE doll! I LOVE that dress on you. With your figure, that peplum dress looks awesome on you. That dress was waiting for you to pick it up! HaHaHa I love the textured tights with it. You added your own twist to it. Love that! You know, I can also see a really beautiful pin attached to the dress. I think that would be really pretty. Give it a try! The dress is such a pretty canvas. Hope you're having a great day.

Oh it looks just gorgeous on you ! Cute stockings too. I have had my prejudices about peplums, but they seem to look great on various body types so I guess I'll have to try some blouses / dresses on myself! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for all the comments lately, I read all of them <3
