I've gone all elephunk on you for this outfit of the week post. Check out this very cute elephant and ethnic print dress with some cheeky cut out shoulder action. It's a beaut of an eBay dress but I cannot take the credit for finding it. I saw it on another bloggers wishlist and promptly followed the link all the way to the checkout (if it was you whose wishlist idea I nabbed then sorry). I'm not usually an animal motif kinda gal and if I do go for a little animal in my life then it tends to be of the giraffe variety, loves em I do!! But the colour combo and style of this dress had me cooing so naturally I had to have it in the drobe. Word of warning if you're going to follow suit and purchase this dress be prepare to have the mother of all battles getting it on and off. It has no stretch and no zip/buttons etc so you literally have to squeeze and squash it over the boobies. Every time I wear it I panic that it won't come off and the boyf will have to cut me out, but fear not it can be done ladies.

My plan was to wear this outfit to a friends birthday BBQ yesterday but it wasn't as sunny as I hoped so I switched to something a little warmer. Luckily its a beaut of a day today so I am wearing it right now as I type. I've teamed it with simple tan accessories. I didn't want tan overload so went with my black studded bag, which is another bargain eBay find (serious habit). My little tan loafers are a couple of years old but sooooo comfy and they pretty much go with everything. I've added some funky accessories too, check out the statement ring and wrap around bracelet. Please excuse my messy hair it wasn't looking its best so just shoved it into a quick up do for these photos. Right I'm off to read my book in the sun and nurse an unwanted hangover with lots of coca cola.
Thanks

i love the accessories and the belt with this dress. Such a great dress, love seeing what others have on their wishlists x
ReplyDeleteLook at that tan. Your elephant dress is super cute, it makes me think of India. LOL @ getting it on and off though, my biggest fear is getting stuck inside a piece of clothing! ;)

Oooh that dress is so pretty! Love the elephant motif on it :D I'd have no chance if I got one though with lack of stretch haha, I seem to have wide shoulders and normal clothes are a challenge for them haha...

That dress is gorgeous - I love the ethnic elephant print! I nearly got stuck in a top I tried on in New Look the other day and had a major panic trying to get it over my head. Would have been an absolute nightmare having to call the sales assistant to come and help me out!
