I Like Pretty Clothes

Today’s outfit. I’ve had this dress for ages, haven’t worn it in ages. Not sure why, it’s super comfy.

The Jenny skirt in Harlequin print from Pinup Girl Clothing. I freaking love this print, so, so much. It is a great skirt, positively voluminous - I can’t even estimate how much fabric is in this thing. I think I will have to get it - eventually - in other prints.

My Frank-N-Furter necklace is my favourite one from Twisted Mine of Mine - use CHMAY for 10% off. There is a Lily Munster/Bat necklace that I have my eye on next …

Havana Nights dress from Pinup Girl Clothing. I’m not 100% about this one, although it has grown on me since I put it on this morning.

Pros - even though the print is brighter in person than I was expecting, I really like it. The pockets are amazing!! Seriously, all swing dresses should have pockets. The skirt is huge and a perfect length. It is more modest than some other dresses and therefore great for work.

Cons - I’m not sure the neckline really works for me. It’s not horrible, but … I’m not sure. It’s also a bit big on me, even though I am right at the top of the bust measurement and an inch over the waist measurement (size 2X). I find it kind of big all over, but especially in the bust. And it gapes a bit in the back. Also, the seams on either side of the bust are kind of pokey outy and weirdly placed. 

I think I will keep it, as I do like it despite the cons, but it’s definitely not one I would buy in multiples like a lot of other PUG dresses.
