Lately I have been a little bit obsessed with the colour blue and when I saw this amazing dress on the Laundry Boutique* website, I knew I had to have it. This Cobalt Blue Leopard Bodycon Dress is perfect for those wanting to embrace print pattens this season and the mix of cobalt and baby blue blends in with the current pastel trends.
I love this dress as it gives you the most perfect hourglass silhouette and hides the areas you feel most self conscious about with its strategic lighter print in the centre and dark along your bodies curves. The material is stretchy, but not too stretchy that it gives you too much excess material. This dress is a size 8 and fits my body perfectly, in fact there is plenty of breathing space. On my 5ft2 little body, the dress sits nicely above my knees and does not look too long on me, something that often causes concern when I shop for midi bodycon dresses.
If you still feel a little bit self conscious in this dress, you can opt for shape wear that will help enhance your figure further and give you a smooth contour. I have recently fallen in love with this Naomi & Nicole Luxurious Shaping Torsette slip*. The garment is made from soft fabric and is designed with a seamless front to provide elegant shaping. If you are looking for tummy, back-fat and hip control, this is perfect for you. I don't always need shaping underwear, but when I feel like my fat days are getting the better of me and I need a little bit more support, this nude slip feels like my comforting best friend.
If you love this dress as much as I do or feel like making a sneaky purchase at The Laundry Boutique, use the code Forevermissvanity10 and you can get 10% off. This code is valid for 6 months.

You look gorgeous! I don't think I'd have picked this out myself but you look lovely in it! Might have to have a cheeky look! :)

This dress looks amazing on you, I am a chicken when it comes to print. I go for a more subtle look, I picked up some faux snake print skater shoes, that is about as adventurous I get!

I love leopard print and the dress looks great on your figure. I'm much older than you so I'm not sure I could get away with it, even with shape wear! I've not tried anything from laundry boutique but I like the sound of trying the shaping slip!
ReplyDeleteI love this dress, I also love finding new websites.
