Lucky for me I was looking for an excuse to wear my new amazing Voodoo Vixen dress, I was so stoked to hear that not only had Voodoo Vixen introduced a plus size range but also that Simply Be and Fashion World would be stocking a select few of the dresses. When I saw this cat printed pink beauty of a dress it just had to be mine.
Pink is usually not my colour so I was a little nervous about splashing my cash on this one. I went for a 3x unsure what the sizing was going to be like, When it came I was blown away. The 3x was a perfect fit so if you are a 20-22 like me then I think it is true to size unless you are extra blessed in the chest department then it can be a little tight fitting so you may have to size up. Even Tess herself said she owns this dress and had to size up. The buttons on this one are just for show so no need to worry about the dreaded button gape. This is such a flattering dress the shape is beautiful and comes in at all the right places to really show off those curves. The material is excellent quality thick without being too heavy.
The neckline has little peep holes which fall in just the right places to be modest but cheekily sexy at the same time. Due to the cut and print the pink doesn't wash me out like it usually does which is awesome because I think I would have cried. So if like me you are not one to usually rock pink try it out, That is what fashion is about trying new things.
You can also pick up the matching cardigan with a cute Kitty embroidery. This helps finish that true 50s look. I felt like I should be sipping milkshakes in a diner somewhere.
Looking at the price of the cardigan at first I wasn't sure but I ended up snapping up two different ones.
The arms are a great length coming in longer than other cardigans so gives that extra snugly feel that I wasn't expecting from this kind of cardigan. The material is really soft and a great quality. Sadly this one of the cardigans didn't wash very well and I managed to somehow shrink it and send the pink a little bit lilac. I am horrified but I think this is more my error as my other cardigan washed fine.

light pink is usually my enemy but somehow this dress works!! I think it is the cut and pattern x
DeleteYou look so amazingly cute in this dress. I haven't tried anything from Voodoo Vixen yet as I hear the dresses comes small in sizes so I don't think they would fit over my boobies. I can't justify spending over £40 on a cardigan either although it is so cute. :)
ReplyDeleteyeah don t bother with the cardigan I think I will just customise my own in future. I did have to size up for the button up tilly which I managed to get off Hannah woop x
