I had a peruse of the new range and the Loose Fit Denim Dress totally called out to me as I don't have anything like this in my wardrobe at the moment.
It is a lovely soft and stretchy denim (for some reason I thought it would be stiffer with less stretch so this was a pleasant surprise) and comes with a tie belt. I now must admit I swapped the belt it came with for one I already have as I found it sat better on me.
I wore this dress for a family lunch last weekend and felt really comfortable all day even after spending the afternoon playing with my son, niece and nephew!!
I also wore it to work and dressed it up with my brogues and one of the ladies I worked with said how lovely it looked!!
I took advantage of my mum's garden to get some photos!!
So lets talk about the fit, I went for a size 26 which is two sizes bigger than I normally wear but upon checking the size guide online this was the most appropriate size. You do need to bear this in mind when looking at this dress to check the sizing as you may need to size up. I would say that this fits more like a 22 than a 26.
I was worried about it gaping across my bust as is often the way with clothes that button up but my fears were unfounded as even with my padded push my boobs right out bra on it still didn't gape- yay!! I have a little bit of extra room at the waist but the adding my own belt nips me in and to be honest gives me space for my tummy and I avoid it being too clingy.
I love the fact that I have been able to wear this dress for both a casual weekend outing and also for work with smarter shoes so it makes it really versatile.
Overall I love this dress and as the weather hopefully gets warmer I shall pop it on over leggings for an easy weekend option.
Make sure you head over and check out the other lovely ladies to see what they chose!
