Blue Leopard Print Dress - Outfit of the Day

Blue Leopard // Hello everyone, hope you are enjoying the New Year so far. 2017 has started off with a busy bang, and I only have a quick outfit post for you today. I spotted this dress (excuse the pun) in my local charity shop for £5 - what a bargain! I loved the look of this outfit on the hanger, but I'm not too sure if it's right for me. I really dislike bodycon style dresses - they always cling to my lumps and bumps and whenever I eat anything, my food baby is on full display. It's a shame because I like the print and how it shows clearly on the sheer 3/4 sleeves, but I'm just not sure...

Have you ever seen an item of clothing on a hanger or worn by a model and instantly bought it, without trying it on first? I think if I'd tried this number on in the shop first, I might have an extra £5 in my purse. It just feels a little too tight against my skin, and this is the season to eat, right? I don't want to wear anything that will make me feel self-conscious - that's definitely something I've learnt through trial & error and age. Life is too short - eat cake and forget about having the perfect body-con figure!... ;)

More soon,

Helen
