Gothic Summer Vibes

June 12, 2017 by Debz Louise Leave a Comment

It’s getting to that time of year where I am reminded that I love a good old maxi dress. I mean don’t get me wrong, leggings and a dress are fantastic and I will always be a fan but there is something about a flowy maxi dress that makes me feel great. When it comes to summer, I love being able to throw on a dress with a pair of flip flops and just leave the house.

                                       



The lovely people at Simply Be sent me this dress earlier this week and I really love it! I wore it out to lunch the other day and sat in the sunshine and it was perfect. It’s elasticated under the bust which means that it fits really nice – the skirt is flowy as well which is really nice. It is super long on me however I am only 5’2, so it could work well on someone taller too!

I love the lace affect around the shoulders and think this makes it so much nicer than just a plain black maxi dress. I don’t actually own many plain clothes as I am much more a fan of colour but I like this, because the lace adds a little dimension to it.



Simply Be were kind enough to send this so I could try it for size, as I have had nightmares with their sizing coming up small. I have to say that this could not have fit better and I really hope it reflects in the rest of the seasons items!


What do you think you’ll be wearing this summer?
