Lust of the Week: TopShop Crazy Print Bandeau dress


Topshop, 50 UK pounds

As soon as I spotted this crazy, graphic dress on the TopShop website I was in lust! This funky, graphic, cartoon printed dress is not for the faint of heart! The hard punk style is softened though by a flirty bubble hem and sweetheart neckline. Pair this dress with some funky resin bangle and chunky platform cut-out booties! Perfect for a party, but also wearable during the day if you pair it with some comfy Converses and a slouchy cardigan this dress is surprisingly versatile - try it out today!





In other news, I received this lovely award from Mo of Mo-logue! Her blog is unique and honest so check her out! The rules for this award/tag are to list 10 honest things about myself and then tag a few other bloggers to pass it on so here are my 10 honest things:
  1. I'm so scared of needles that I fainted when I got my ears pierced
  2. When I was 6 I wanted to either be an astronaut or a dentist
  3. My favourite ice cream flavour is cookies & cream
  4. A psychic told me once that I would be engaged at 20, then run off with another man who would be my soul mate. None of those things came true.
  5. I used to be so shy I couldn't even raise my hand in class to ask a question
  6. When I was 3 I had all my storybooks memorized and I could move my finger along with the words, but I never made the connection to actually read.
  7. My favourite classes in high school were choir, physics, and english literature
  8. My pet peeve is line budgers and I will call out anyone who budges in front of me, which isn't very smart considering I'm small and weak
  9. I really love to sing and when I'm at home, or in the car, I'm always singing something
  10. One of my dreams in life is to publish a novel
And now I pass this tag onto:

That dress is so amazing!! I used to be scared of needles too, but frequent trips to the hospital since I was young means I don't even bat an eyelid at the prospect. And I would love to publish a novel too :) Thank you so, so, so much for passing the tag my way dear.
