Outfit post: I love dresses

Being a tomboy as a teen, if you had told me that I would own as many dresses as I do now, I would have looked at you in disgust. My love of dresses has only lasted the last few years, but it's a love affair that I can never see dying. Plus they hide my thighs superbly!

Now you've seen this dress before hanging on my wardrobe when I first bought it a couple of weeks ago, but I finally wore it to work.

Look - natural light! At 8 in the morning I am impressed! Looking forward to getting a proper camera and a tripod.

I love the shape of this dress - it fits me like a glove.

Yes I must insist on holding out the skirt (I am such a girl). You would have had to suffer some twirling pics but I really don't fancy falling down the stairs.

This is my version of wearing pastels. Probably about as close as I'll get for now.

I love this hairband. It's from H&M and I was originally going to get the black but I liked the contrast against my hair.

Didn't get a photo of them on but I teamed the dress with tights and these shoes which I love! Medium heel and something different for work instead of courts. 

Dress: Dorothy Perkins
Hairband: H&M
Shoes: New Look

How is everyone enjoying the sunshine?
