My Best Buy Of The Summer- Featuring Simply Be

Right before I went to Mexico I bought a dress I knew I would love and get so much wear out of. I'm talking about the Gingham Check Bardot Skater Dress. I saw it online and fell in love. It's so beautiful. And what a bargain!! £25 for it is a great price as the material is great and it's a great design. I'm wearing size 24 which is a great fit for me as there is a bit of stretch in the dress.




Isn't it cute? I loved wearing this on holiday as it kept me cool and I felt very stylish in it. It's made of cotton which is great to use in the warmer weather. Another plus with this dress is that I didn't need to wear any shapewear with it as it is quite forgiving despite being quite tight fitting. I love the bardot neckline on the dress and I have found out that I can wear a normal black bra, I just tighten the hooks to give more support around my back while I push the straps down so they don't show. I will be trying to wear this dress with the bra straps visible as well as I don't think it will look bad at all.


Excuse my face in these photos. It was a couple of days after my nasty fall, so my face is swollen and bruised. And it was so humid and warm so I look like a ready to boil lobster.

Sandals from Simply Be (old)
Bangles from Evans (HERE)


I wore the dress with some lovely sandals I bought from Simply Be a while ago. They are super comfortable. Maybe not the most stylish choice, but I had to pack smart for my holiday, so not much room for nice sandals over comfort. I think they look ok with this dress though as they are black and quite neutral.

I've gone for a simple make up and just two simple bangles from Evans cause I wanted the dress to get all the attention, as it deserves it.
