Working it

Ive seen a few other bloggers in this dress including Becky from does my blog make me look phat


They all looked amazing in the dress and the print was so cute, i thought id go and get one myself. Now this wasn't easy every time i went into primark the dress was there but never in the size i wanted. Id pretty much given up but i went in the other week and saw it there in a 20 so i snapped it up! Now i know this meant i broke my shopping ban but i really couldn't pass it up not for £10.
I wore this to work it was really comfy and kept me cool in the office all day, i paired it with my lifes big canvas necklace which i got at plus north and I'm so in love with.




This is one of the only times I've been able to fit into the 20's at primark they are usually too small but thanks to Becky for showing me that i should try and sometimes you end up with  gem like this.
My Evans dresses came this week too here's a sneak peek of what i got. I panning on wearing one of them tonight so there will be a blog post soon.

Hope your all having a great week. Do you manage to find great things in primark?
XOXO

  1. Love this dress on you! Primark drives me mad, it's always so busy and messy when I go in so I can never find anything. I need to persevere next time :) x

  5. Hi dear Rachel, You are always very sweet with this lovely dress. I like this dress so much. And your new dresses seem so sweet. I like their fabric print design so much. I am curious to see you wore the dresses.. May I ask you something.? Yesterday I and my daughter looked the life's big canvas. My daughter likes your eyeglasses chain which is with cat figure and I want to buy the same for my daughter. But I could not find the chain there. Was your friend create that chain for you? Or Is there that chain with cat figure on that site but I could not find.?
    Thank you very much and all best wishess...:))
    xoxo

  6. I love this especially since it has the peter pan collar, which makes up like 80% of my wardrobe haha
    I think i need to invest more time in primark, it's normally just a stressful time and i end up sloping off to the pyjama section 'cause pj's keep me happy but if i can find things like this i'll have to make an effort!

  7. I can't believe this dress is Primark! It's times like this when I wish they had an online shop. You look amazing in it! I love the peter pan collar, and the print. The shape is lovely, too! Dress perfection! xx

    1. It's lovely isn't it? You could try eBay ppl seem to buy one of every size and put them on there. Thank you I was really surprised it fit but do happy it did for £10 it was a bargain! If they did online they would make a fortune same if they increased their size range Xx

  8. Rachel! I love your new blog header!It's so you! you look amazing in that dress! I really wish I had the confidence to pull off such things. I always buy stuff and then am too scared to wear it and just end up sticking to the same old baggy jumper and leggings combo :( xxx

  11. Even more flamingos, I really like your taste. ;)
    I wish Primark would just size up a bit and sell clothes up to 24 oder 26 (at least). :/
