Shopping Heaven.. the end

And at last, the 2 final pieces from my monday packages.

The silver bubble dress from Yours (size 22/24). It is way shorter than I expected, I tried it first as a dress with black leggings ..



.. and since I didn't felt so good, I'm positively sure I'll wear it as a top with a black pants...





The last piece is a red biker jacket from Dorothy Perkins (size 22) which is a really good surprise as the fabric is really soft as velvet.





The only cloud in this shopping heaven is the package from Evans hasn't arrived yet...
Evans and I have a doomed relationship : my first order never arrived and it took me more than 3 months to be fully reimbursed (and an impressive amount of emails to their customer service).
I never fully recovered from not being able to have the Beth Ditto purple sequin dress that went out of stock just after my order! I still need retail therapy!

I'm of an optimistic nature, so I tried again.. and I made the order to DP and Evans (which are the same business) the same day and the DP package arrived monday.
Let's hope it will arrive soon...

Shopping heaven ... severals outfits in a row...

Here are some of the few pieces I received this week...

A very nice grey coat from Dorothy Perkins : I thought it would be longer, at first I was a bit disappointed but it fits well and the color is darker than online. The buttons are really nice and have a nautical theme. The size 22 is a bit tight but still wearable.




A nice green top with gold foil from Yours : I really love it, the global shape is perfect : slightly batwing with a V-neck.




and at last, a black sequin tank top from Yours, perfect to combine in a party outfit!

I also innovated with the light, trying not to use the flash... it is less reinder-in-the light.. but you can't really see the clothes... arghhhh I really suck at taking pictures...

Today, I finally received 2 of the 3 orders I'm waiting for : from Dorothy Perkins and from Yours. It really felt like a late Christmas.

For DP, I was a bit afraid all the clothes will end up being too small... Because if I follow religiously the size chart, I'm between a 56FR (28UK) and a 58FR (30UK). In real shopping life, I mostly fit between a 50FR (22UK) and a 54FR (26UK). It is usually always a surprise.

Anyway, it was a very nice pleasure to fit in the 22 of DP. Of course, the real clothes are always a bit different from what you get on the computer screen : colour, fabrics, length..

And on the other side, the clothes from Yours, ordered in size 22/24, are a little bit more tight to my body.





Here is the 1st outfit, with the nice embroidered dress with the studded belt. As it is sleeveless and I really don't like my shoulders, I put a little black T-Shirt under and I'm sure it more balanced with my body.
I also added 2 detailed pictures of the sleeves and belt.






I still fight with the quality of the pictures : don't know why it is so blurry and I can't find my happy face... plenty of time to improve anyhow....
