The Denim Shirt Dress

03rd June 2015
Is there ever a season where denim doesn’t feature somewhere in amongst the hottest trends? Not that I can recall, although I don’t remember there ever being quite so much variety as there is right now. No complaints from me (other than from my bank balance). I love a bit of the blue stuff and it’s perfect for any off duty look. I was recently lured in by the New Look and came away with another piece to add to my collection.

Shirt Dress: New Look (here) | Sandals: Primark (current stock) | Bracelet c/o lolandgrace

These photos haven’t come out as well as usual, most likely due to me actually taking them myself for once. Laura + Tripod and self timer are not the best combination in the world, luckily I usually have Mum or Ben on hand to help out!

This shirt dress was reduced to £12 in the New Look sale and I love it for something easy to sling on after work. It’s a bit on the short side which I often find with New Look’s dresses but with flat shoes and a bit of careful placement on myself it’s not really an issue. I paired it with these wide-fit sandals which I picked up last month in the Cardiff Primark. I love that more places are doing wide-fit shoes these days- no more squishing my flippers in to beautiful shoes that really are too tight. Oh how I long for pretty, dainty feet.

I’m not really sure what else I can say about this outfit, it’s simple but I like it and I shall be wearing this dress well in to the next fashion season whatever the trends dictate!

Fellow denim fans, what’s been your favourite find so far?

    I think these photos turned out great, especially that last one! Using a tripod is always a bit awkward if you haven’t got a remote shutter release (I don’t have one either). Loving the shoes too!

    I really like this dress on you! I’m not the biggest denim fan but I like it on other people. Ha, yes, the tripod, self timer dash! I am really cross as my father in law gave me a wonderful new tripod and I lent it to my friends for their wedding photo booth and it came back to me broken but with no explanation, no mention. They didn’t even use it in the end which makes me even crosser. I can only use landscape setting as it won’t stay in place and the mechanism which made it go high doesn’t work. Grrrr!!! So now the dash is even more precarious. x

    Can’t wait to pull my denim shirt dress back on- the only niggle is that it needs so much damn ironing. SIGH!

    I’m such a denim convert! Aside from my new-ish jeans, I’m also loving denim shirts tucked into skirts at the moment. x
