Wear It All Challenge: Lemon and Lime


Here we are, in the yellow dresses section of my closet! It's a short one but I think it's going to be exiting. We're starting it off with a real brand dress by Miss Sixty. It's an OK piece in my opinion - the bottom part is beautifully draped, the colour is sunny and adorable but the straps are a bit weird but that could work for their advantage as they make for an interesting neck line. The waist may be a tad problematical as it kinda look like something a pregnant woman could wear but that's an easy thing to hide.  


I liked this outfit way better while I was putting it together than I do now. No idea way! The colour doesn't go all too well with my doll's completion, but I'm too lazy to change that at the moment.  I really, really wanted my first look to have something green in it because I do love the combination and I think it looks quite well here. The paler collar top also does a good job of covering the waist and it's colour compliments the bag and the bracelet. However there's something off with the whole outfit and I can't put my finger on it. Oh well, what can you do!?

Wear It All Challenge: Cut Me Out

I really liked that dress - I love the colour, the shape, the design but it's so damn boring to style! At least for me that is. It was part from the last DKNY collection ever released by Stadroll back in 2010, which was based on the Fall RTW collection in 2009. May be I would've liked it more if they stayed closer to the original rather than add the cut out sleeves. It's just odd, somehow. 


As I said - for me that dress was boring to style. It didn't look good used just as a skirt or top and the waist part doesn't work well with belts. There was little for me to do than add a jacket and be grateful that I checked it from my list.

Clothes:
L-S Cut Out Dress  - DKNY

Wear It All Challenge: Retro Print


I was tempted to do just one of those dresses and skip the rest but as I was styling the Minidress  (second one) I came up with a few similar outfits and finally I deiced to crate a sort of editorial post with all the seven items I own with the 60's pattern.

Wear It All Challenge: Crimson Rose


I've always loved this dress! I often wear it with as a top with the Lavin Scarlet skirt tribute but this time around I decided to focus just on it. The dress was released on Stardoll back in February 2010 and was part of a store which was advertising one of the first collections of the American fashion brand AmyClaire. This particular dress was later released as a freebie so there is a good chance you can find it in the Bazaar for a reasonable price.
By the way, it was quite difficult to find proper photos for most of pieces in the collection, but I manged :)


Initially I wanted to pair the dress with something white, maybe a shirt or a blazer, but once I tried this trench out I knew they were meant to be together! As you can see I learned from my mistake in the previous post and I put this beautiful red lipstick. To top all that I added a stunning rose headpiece and adorable necklace. And the clutch - as cute as it gets!
I'm more than happy with the final result - the ever fashionable black/red combo is classy but the outfit still looks fresh and youthful thanks to the unusual accessories.

Clothes:
Coquelicot Strapless Dress - Amyclaire
Everyday Long Blazer - It Girls

Accessories:
Necklace - Sonia Rykiel Tribute
HotBuys Paris Love Clutch - Bonjour Bizou
MSW13 Sandals - Special Offer

Jewellery:
Red Rose - No brand
