Polka Dot Dress with Oversized Collar


Hello all!
This gorgeous little frilly polka dot, collared dress is definitely a new favourite. Although anything with  an oversized collar verging on the ridiculous, is a-ok in my book. You know me! I probably should have fixed the camera to the 'children and animals' setting so it could keep up with my mad spinning, but I genuinely couldn't stop myself from grinning and twirling around like a fool! There's just something about this dress that makes me happy whenever I wear it, so a big thank you to Siren London for putting this smile on my face! Despite the terrible weather, mid-shoot the rain dispersed and the sun appeared! So I thought it'd be just plain rude not to take the opportunity to pop on this pretty little Beauxoxo flower garland! Anyway, I hope you've all had a wonderful weekend! :)

Dress : c/o Siren London. Head Garland : c/o Beauxoxo. Sunglasses : Camden Market.

    Is your hair naturally that curly, or do you do something to make it that perfectly curled at the ends?

    1. Hi Joey! Aww thank you, I'm glad! :) Yep my curls are natural, you can tell in more close up photos because I get funny little ringlets popping out around my face where new baby hair is growing haha :D The shorter my hair is the curlier it gets, so I suppose thats why! x

  58. The photo (third from the bottom) reminds me of something from A Secret Garden. Very sweet. I can't quite work out the colour of the dress. Is it burnt orange? Sometimes it's a little tricky to tell. Either way it's gorgey!
