Victoria Beckhal tiered mini-dress avaialable at Smets Brussels and online here
The weirdest thing happened to me yesterday. I went to the Smets Brussels bloggers event to catch up with my dear friend Yeba and for fun I tried a couple of designer dresses. Although I love fashion and I can invest in a pair of designer shoes or a designer bag I have a problem with real designer clothes (2000 € for a skirt is surreal to me). Being at Smets and being able to try everything on was MY opportunity to test if I should change my mind.Let me tell you, I don't know if the price tag really justifies the piece but when I put on this Victoria Beckham dress all my flaws magically disappeared. Really, you can ask Yeba, she can tell you how good it looked, and way better in person than on the picture. Like every woman I'm usually not happy with my own reflection in the mirror but for the real first time I thought to myself "man, I look hot !". It fitted (almost) like a glove and made me feel super confident.
Now, is the dress worth 2500 € ? Unfortunately not for my bank account, but it is a stunning, gorgeous, magnificient, more-than-perfect dress and if I win the lotto getting it will be the first thing on my list.

I can finally agree with my mother. Since I was a teenager she has been telling me that if a dress doesn't fit me, the problem is the dress, not me. And you know what ? She is totally right ! Now, mummy, can you buy me this Victoria Beckham dress ? My birthday IS coming up...
