Feeling Blue at Prom – A Scarlett & Jo Review

May 28, 2015 by Debz Louise 6 Comments

I have written, tweeted, instagramed and swooned over Scarlett & Jo very many times before – and to be honest with you, the chances are that I will do it again. Not only do Scarlett & Jo offer up a number of choices when it comes to clothing, but they actually listen to their customers. For example, they recognise that not everyone wears dresses so they now offer skirts and have recently launched a number of ‘separates’ items – great news! What I also love about Scarlett & Jo is the support that they show bloggers – from dresses designed for them to random packages arriving on doorsteps ‘just because they’re a brand that really does what they can to please people! Of course, when you add on the fact that they offer pretty dresses up to a size 32, they’re winners in my heart!

So anyway, a few weeks ago they sent me this Navy 2 in 1 Prom Dress to try and it’s a winner. I love the fact that it is a navy material rather than black, which is fantastic! It gives it something a bit different to the norm.

It has the now infamous thick elasticated waist that lots of the dresses and skirts from Scarlett & Jo now have. I love this because it brings everything in and gives it a nice shape – winner in my book.  As all of their prom dresses do, it has a slight netting underneath the skirt too which gives it a lovely lift.

The sizing is great and the top part of the dress being a thick, almost elasticated type material gives everything a really nice shape and feel. I wore this out to a local carnival the other day and it was comfortable to wear for the whole day. On that occasion, I wore it with leggings, so it works as a dressed-down look too!

Do you own anything from Scarlett & Jo? What are your favourite pieces?

P.S I have dreams of a 2 in 1 prom dress in a cherry print – how cute would that be?

I was lucky enough to be gifted some items in this post and I am very grateful, but I am always open and honest in my reviews!

    Looks fantastic but I do have a query – as it's 2 in 1, is the top removal so you can wear both parts separately?

      No 🙁 But they have bought out skirts and tops now so you could create the same effect in separate items if you wanted xx
