When Fashion World asked me if I wanted to do this challenge I answered yes straigth away and I thought that among my picks of clothing I had to chose something pink cause it's such a perfect colour especially now in the summer.
This is what I chose.
The Collins Avenue dress* from the Joe Brown Collection. It's on sale right now as well, so you can grab youself a bargain!! Isn't it pretty? I think it is a really good summer dress. Lightweight material, lovely romantic feel pattern, lovely details in the design, great length and most of all it has pockets!! Yes, it does have pockets!!! I love pockets on a dress. That just makes it instantly more attractive for me.
Lovely cowl neck and pockets.

Lovely details at the back.
I like this dress, it is very cooling in hot weather as it is made of cotton. So it breathes and makes you feel cooler. Unfortunately on me this dress isn't perfect. As you can see in the photos, it doesn't accommodate for enough room in the boobs area. I need more room. The waist is almost non existing on me and it just looks baggy and weird. I did have a good bra on as well that gives my boobs a good lift, but still so it wasn't enough. After I had taken the photos I thought that it might would look better with a belt. So next time I wear it I will try with a belt. I like this dress too much to not use it, so I will try to style it differently.
I've styled the dress simple with some lovely sandals from Simply Be, yellow vintage earrings from ebay and some lovely summer roses. I want the pattern to shine most possible on it's own so I kept it simple.
Do you like romantic patterns?
*This dress was gifted to me, but all views are my own.
