That lovely moment when a beautifully wrapped wedding invitation drops onto your doormat is an exciting one. It is. And lets face it, we all know why – Its not just because of the joyous impending nuptials between your beloved friends or family, it is also (mainly) because it means you have permission to buy a new outfit. Probably new shoes too. definitely a new bag. Its THE LAW.
And whilst Its not a written law as such, it would still stand up in any court I’m sure, because its the peoples law … you know, much like ‘bagsy’ or calling ‘shotgun’, You know it. I know it. And ALL HUSBANDS know it.
Now normally, I would hit up Coast stores for a decadent little wedding guest number. But after years and years of attending weddings, those dry clean only, cant-possibly-wear-one-dress-to-more-than-one-wedding little garments can really start to stack up. And so I figured, Yes I want a new dress, but no, I don’t want to spend a fortune on something that I may get very little wear out of.
And then I found this little summery beauty. Its absolutely perfect.
Its perfect for wearing to a wedding, but its also perfect to wear as a smart day dress too …
I’m so chuffed with it. Its now one of my favourites 🙂
With its lace detail, it is bang on-trend and reminds me very much of a Self-Portrait dress (which cost over £250 I might add!) so at just £45, I happily handed over the dosh, and with a little fist-pump of dress purchasing success, I went on my merry way.
ISLA LACE DRESS
Thank you for reading, What do you think of the dress? Id love to hear your comments in the box below 🙂 Have a wonderful bank-holiday weekend, and see you guys next week (for chic day-wear!) Much love, Anna xx
PS. Zeit my Geist has (rather amazingly) made it to the finalists of the #MadBlogawards within the lifestyle category (I know, right?!) and as I have just heard, ZmG has also been shortlisted for the #BiBs awards within the Fashion & Beauty category (I KNOOOOW!) … To tell you the truth, I cant quite believe it, and I will need the day/month/year to get my head around such wonderful news. I will be needing to celebrate with wine later, where I shall toast to my trusty sidekick @adadcalledspen (as he convinced me to go for it in the first place, to my own shock, as I didn’t think the site was anywhere near ready to be judged!) …
If you would like to vote for Zeit my Giest within the Beauty and Fashion category of the #BiBs (Brilliance in blogging) then you can do so HERE.
If you would like to fling a vote our way in the #MadBlogAwards, (Mum and Dad blogs) then you can do so HERE.
And If you’ve really got the happy Friday vibes going on, then you can vote for ZmG in both. Ha ha … 🙂
Many thanks for reading, and for your continued support 🙂

What a gorgeous bargain find! I’m so tight fisted – I recycle dresses… occasionally buying myself a new treat! H x
