OOTD: "You Rock Alot of Polka Dots, Jess..."

25 July, 2012


Dress*: c/o OASAP // Sunglasses: River Island Sale, £2 // Necklace: Rock N Rose, £18

I took my title inspiration today from a quote from New Girl. I was too impatient to watch alongside with the UK, so I watched the whole series online within a couple of days and now I'm counting down the days until I can buy Season One on DVD! This adorable dress was sent to me by OASAP. I usually have trouble with OASAP garments coming up a little too short on me but this dress is absolutely perfect! The under skirt is a little short but I just pop a plain black bodycon skirt underneath and it's fine! I actually own a Dahlia midi dress that is almost identical to this one, but I'm so happy I now have a short option to choose from now too!

I haven't been blogging as frequently because I'm feeling a little uninspired and I never blog unless I want to. I think it's obvious in a post when a blogger doesn't actually want to type up a post and it comes across far too forced. We all have good days and bad days, so I believe your readers will understand that. I haven't got a set out routine of blogging so if I feel like taking a break for a few days or a week I easily can. However, I woke up today and wanted to put a post up so here I am!

I hope everyone's enjoying the beautiful heatwave that's landed. I visited the Isle of Wight yesterday for the very first time with my beautiful friend Soozy and I adored it there. I'll put up a few photos soon once Soozy's uploaded hers and I can pinch a few, because she has a much fancier camera than me!

  6. Such a cute polka dress! I need more polka dots in my life!
    I saw your instagram about those £2 sunnies, so popped into RI to bag myself some! So thanks for the tip-off! I'm not sure they quite suit my face shape as much as yours do, but for £2 I don't care! xx

  25. Oh yes this is very Zoeey Deschanel me thinks! The New Girl DVD needs to come out ASAP!!! Can't wait! You look very Jess and cute! And I know exactly what you mean about the blogging. When I came back from my holiday I was just suckered into a hiatus. I couldn't help myself. I just needed a break and didn't like the pressure of blogging as soon as I came back! But its true, only write when you are inspired because readers will be able to tell! I'd rather write a few heart felt posts then loads of cold thoughtless ones!
