Striped Mango Dress 4

You know it, I know it. I’m a self-confessed stripe whore, a horizontal line addict. I just can’t get enough. If I see stripes, I need it. I don’t know what it is, or why? But it’s a pattern that just has me hanging off it’s every word. I love this dress, you will have before seen it moons ago when I styled it completely differently, here. I hope to god since then (in that small space of time) that my blog has grown wings and completely revamped itself, even if it’s just a bit.

I wanted to get this dress back on and do it ten times more the justice, because it’s a dress that deserves it. It’s versatile. You see, it’s fail safe. One of those dresses that when you open a wardrobe on a bad day, this beams back at you saying, ”Don’t worry, I got ya back, put me on because I can do the job right!” Is it just me that has imaginary conversations with clothes? Stripes will always be my go-to. They are chic, sophisticated – I feel like Audrey Tatou when I walk down the street in them, you know that classic charm! I say wear your stripes with pride!

I wanted to vamp it up this time with Chelsea boots, my favourite pair from F&F Clothing, I love the brown heel on it too. They just look pretty rad and oh-so perfect all year round and a steal for only £10! This over the shoulder bag from Topshop is so easy to throw over the shoulder and head out to run errands or meet you friends for coffee. I can see a very mono chrome look going on here!

People will probably get VERY bored of seeing the same sort of outfits on this blog, but I’ve realised I don’t need to change it up too much. My blog is about my personal style. Not just some items of clothing I’ve been sent as a freebie – a more natural and normal look is what people want to see. I’m not saying samples won’t appear on the blog, but if they do they will be more my style! I want you to look at my blog and think, ”hey, I could wear that easily.” I want you to feel like you’re looking at friend for inspiration! I’m not someone who is dolled up all the time, so you will get the raw deal with me. I hope you enjoy the direction my blog of personal style is going because I am extremely excited!

Do you have it that never lets you down? Are you too, a slave to the stripe?

      Aw thank you Katy, it’s currently in the Mango sale for £8.99 – I thought when I first bought it £17.99 was a steal? Bee xxx

    Haha ‘a self-confessed stripe whore’. I love that, made me giggle. I too am fan of all things stripy so it’s only natural that I think this outfit is on point. I like how you’ve paired the dress with the chelsea boots x

    I am personally in love with stripes and you look beautiful! That dress is versatile and it’s the best way to feel good on a bad day. I understand what you mean about showing the same outfits, or even the same pieces. But hell, it’s your blog. You do you. And you are fabulous <3

    You look lovely! I’m a big fan of stripes too, I’m wearing a stripey t-shirt as I say this. You’re right, there’s something about stripes that says ‘I got this’.

    It’s so nice when you discover something versatile. Perfect for those days when you throw open your wardrobe and go “WHY HAVE I GOT NOTHING TO WEAR?!”

    1. QueenBeady Avatar

      Thanks Rosie, thank god its not just me, hehe! I love it, it really is great for when you just cannot decide what to wear! We all need that type of dress in our wardrobe, don’t we?

    I’ve been looking for a cute striped shift to act as a ‘throw on’ outfit when I’m hurry but I’m yet to choose – I want them all!

    I can’t believe those boots were only £10 too. Did you buy them recently ? If so, I’m heading straight to Tesco..

      Hi toots,
      This dress is only £8.99 in the sale! Let me know if you get it.
      It was a couple of months ago now so doubt they’ll have them BUT Tesco always have nice boots ❤️

        I’d never would have thought to look there but I’ll be keeping my eyes peeled now! Fingers crossed they may have one dress left in my size..

        1. QueenBeady Avatar

          Have a sneaky peak online! They might just have it! Fingers crossed.
