Flocking awesome

I seem to be forming a habit of posting a couple of days worth of stuff at once but I figure better that than nothing, yeah? Today's post has a flocked theme.

So, the first dress is much, much prettier than any picture can paint it. It's the Flocked Rose Skater Dress from CityChic.

It is the most amazing red colour and it's lovely to wear. I do wish that I was rich enough to have a professional photographer take these pics sometimes because it honestly looked much nicer on than this photo suggests. I know I constantly whinge about Christian's skills at taking pictures and really, I'm lucky he even takes them at all (he thinks having photos taken of oneself is the height of vanity). But still, I feel like I'm doing a poor job of representing such pretty dresses.

The dress I wore today you have seen before. It's the H&R London Dark Lily dress.

I love the pattern of the flocking so much. The closer you look, the more you see. There's roses, and anchors, and stars, and birds, and leaves, and bows. From afar it just looks like a pretty plain black dress but up close it's wonderful.

I wore it with my purple petticoat today which not only adds flounce (and I always say a gal can never have too much flounce) but also a dash of colour when the dress gets whirled around a little.

Not too sure yet what I'm wearing tomorrow. I have a chiro appointment which calls for a top and bottom so I'll most likely drag out a skirt and top for you all :)
