charity shop dress

 
 
Choker - DIY, Necklace - H&M, Dress - Charity Shop (Alice Takes ATrip), Cardigan - Charity Shop, Bracelet - Vintage, Socks - Primark, Creepers - Ebay

Who would send this lovely little dress to charity?! Somebody was obviously having a mad moment. Tiny dresses & creepers is still my perfect combination. I know creepers have been overdone but I still love them. I can’t help but wear a trend to death! Unfortunately the dress is just a bit too small in the boob department (about 3 cup sizes to be exact.. ha). I hate how shops think that smaller sizes mean no boobies! Oh well, I still think it was worth the £3.49 I spent. 

You may have noticed I am actually smiling on one of the pictures, a pretty rare occurrence! I'm not a fan of my teeth at all, so I don't flash them very often. I didn't want you all to think I'm a complete miserable Mary, so here they are! Getting a picture where I wasn't doing a total Chandler Bing smile was quite a task ha.

    The bottom of your dress matches the fascinator I wore a few posts back! What a good find! I love the choker too.

    This dress is so cute Lydia! Love the outfit, the creepers look great on you! I can't believe some people give some of the things I find at charity shops away! I guess one man's trash is another man's treasure! xx

    You're right, who the hell would send this to a charity shop?! I'm dev'd it wasn't sent to one near me. Love it with the Creepers. I literally cried with laughter at the Chandler Bing smile, I suffer from this disability also. The camera does not love me in any sense, smile, no smile, pose, natural... Nope. Least you pull off your other pictures. Essay over... :)

    Can't believe you found that dress in a charity shop! It looks amazing on you! I hate that shops think that too, I've been on the hunt for a nice bralet for so long but can't find one I like that fits my boobs, so annoying! :) xx

    You have a cute smile, you shouldn't be self concious of it! What a find that dress was! I always ending up buying clothes that are far too big for me in charity shops and then think "WHY?!" when I get home. I think this dress is an exception though, it's too amazing to have left behind!
