Mid-Century Modern


KarinaDresses has just launched their new Mid Century Modern collection.  I absolutely adore all the bright colors and bold prints.  So much to love like the Margaret Dress in Goldenrod (above) and this Poolside print in the Megan cut.  The bright blue combined with the sweet white blossom with black contrast print is so cheery and positively perfect for spring!

No Place Like Gnome

I never thought I would fall for gnomes.  But I have, there's nothing I can do about it.  Collectif knows how to make a beautiful cut, but I would recommend sizing carefully.  I usually wear a 0-2 in Us sizes which has always translated to a 2-4 in UK sizes, but the size 4 in this dress was waaaaaay too tight.  I had to send it back for a size 6.  It's still too tight and the tag reads XXS as well.  I don't know if I'll send this one back as I can breathe a little bit and it's a long wait to exchange.  Typically it's about two to three weeks for an exchange to be complete and in that time the dress could sell out.  So, if you decide to purchase, think of the 4 as XXS, 6 as XXS, 8 as XS and so on.  Other than that, this dress is totally gnome-tastic!
