A New Dress

I'm at that time of year that is wedding season. And the problem is that when multiple friends from the same friendship groups get married in one year, you feel you can't wear the same outfit repeatedly, as people will notice.

I do have a few lovely dresses that I've had for years and only worn to 1 wedding previously, but I'm sure you'll empathise with the feeling of 'I have nothing to wear'.

So last Friday, less than 24 hours before one of my oldest friends weddings, I decided that I had nothing suitable to wear so decided to make myself a new dress.

I did make myself finish a dress for my Mum which I had promised to finish first, and I already had some fabric which had been reduced to £2 a metre in one of my local fabric shops.

I made a backless dress, as I don't have one, liked the look of them, and it was very hot! Sadly I didn't get any photos of the back, but here are a few of the front...



I wore it with my fabulous Marni for H&M necklace (everyone else calls it 'ridiculous') and my bright blue wedge sandals. I love this dress! This is one that will definitely be worn again!
