Outfit: Swallow Print Dress
Swallow Print Dress c/o Warehouse // Milkman Bag, c/o Brit-Stitch // Denim Jacket, ASOS (2010) I am a complete sucker for a printed dress, let alone one with hundreds of birds on it. So when Warehouse asked if I’d like to review a dress from their collection, I of course saw and fell in love with this Swallow Print one. Swoonville.

Style: Top 10 Dresses With Pockets
Occasionally I live vicariously through this blog, which isn’t a bad thing. Simply blogging about a pretty polka dot skater dress and a pair of Oxford brogues can keep me sailing through the broke/unglamorous month of January happily – hence this post.

If it is the latter, I’m…
