Blue Roses!

 

Hi everyone!

How's you're week been?  Since my last blog post, my husband and I went away for a couple of nights to a lovely retreat at Montville in Queensland for our 1st year wedding anniversary!  We had a lovely time away together, it just went by to quickly!  We came home for a couple of nights and then went up to Bundaberg, Queensland to stay at my Mum's and sister's house for a night.  My husband and I caught up with some of my family for a BBQ dinner and we also got to catch up with a really good friend of ours, whom also lives in Bundaberg.  My week of leave is coming to a end and I return back to work next week.
For this blog post I'm reviewing this stunning dress by UK dressmaker Stephanie, her company is called She's Dynamite
This is my second dress I've ordered and had made by Stephanie and all I can say is both dresses are made to the highest detail and quality!  
Note: if ordering yourself a special garment from She's Dynamite, you may have to wait 10-12 weeks for you're gorgeous garment piece to arrive in the post, because Stephanie has a high waitlist and it's only her, designing and creating these stunning dresses.  Also if you're on a budget like myself, most of the garments that Stephanie creates are on the higher price range.  Stephanie kindly allowed me to pay of this dress over a couple of months, this I'm very grateful for.
This dress is called The Alicia Dress and is now sold out on the She's Dynamite website, in all three colourways.  As soon as I saw this dress on the She's Dynamite facebook page, I had to have it!  I just love the gorgeous blue roses fabric print.  There was also a yellow and a pink colourways to choose from as well.  Other wonderful features is the adjustable shoulder straps, the hidden back zip and the hidden side pockets.  I also adore the matching blue bust petals and that this dress is fully lined and has a boned bodice to give more a structured shape. 
The skirt is full circle and is 27 inches in length. I'm wearing a petticoat underneath to give the skirt more of a full-circle shape. 
The day these photos we're taken it was a bit cold and rainy, that's why I'm wearing this blue cardigan, over the dress. I'm looking forward to wearing this dress again, now it's starting to get a bit warmer here in Queensland, Australia. 
The sizing range from 8 to 20 and I ordered a size 20 and this dress fits nicely on me. 
Accessories Include:
Hat is by Belbeina Lee
Bangles and earrings by Splendette
Blue cardigan is from Target Australia
Handbag is from Pinup Girl Clothing
Blue Flats are by Bettie Page Footwear and ordered via Atomic Cherry
These photos we're shoot by my loving husband a few weeks ago at the Elizabeth Park Rose Gardens in Maryborough, Queensland. 
The weather was cold and rainy this day, lucky it cleared up in the late afternoon, we both we're then able to go to the rose gardens to take photos of me wearing this stunning dress!

Until next time!
