ModCloth.com Skies of Blue Dress - We Love Colours Sheer Knee Highs in Black - Wanted Shoes Co. Brown Patent Leather Heels
Despite the fact that it is, quite literally, the middle of Winter here, this amazing Dahlia dress that ModCloth.com so sweetly sent me last week has inspired me to continue my apparent liking for defying the seasons and girly it up for a dinner outing with my dear brother (he took far longer than reasonable in getting dressed - boys, we're onto you).
There really isn't anything not to love about this dress - the print is a perfect size (we all know how particular I am with print sizes), the colours are the dusty shade I'm always looking for in florals, and the fabric is matte and light enough that I can imagine wearing it in ridiculous heat (Summer: please hurry up and get here), and closely woven enough so that I didn't freeze in the slightest, standing outside. It also has the most gorgeous layers of black tulle under the skirt to make it that much more flattering: plenty of wear to come out of you yet, Miss Skies of Blue Dress.
Same goes for these awesome knee-highs from We Love Colours that I haven't taken off since I got them. Full-length tights are so obsolete :p I've been converted - knee/thigh-highs all the way! We Love Colours is also being super sweet and offering all Aussie and New Zealand readers free shipping on orders over $30 :O Just type in the code WELOVENZAUS - don't you just love free shipping.
I always thought these shoes were so so high... and now looking at them, they really aren't :O
If you feel like staring (drooling) at more of ModCloth's shots of the dress, click HERE. :)
P.S. only three more days to enter the giveaway! So clicky-click.
*love*

beautiful floral dress!!!
If I wasn't totally in love with the sheer knee-highs and look before, I am now! This outfit is so effortlessly...it's just amazing. I'm at a loss for words. I love this look.
Wonderful dress, you look absolutely gorgeous!
That outfit is so cute! Modcloth is awesome.
So precious! Love it with the slightly harsher knee hose.
Love the tights, my dear! Check out my lingerie post today...it's a mix of Marisa Miller and a new pizza recipe I tried out from Bon Appetit. Delish. XOXO V
