For my money, H&M have definitely come up with the slip dress of the season... at a mere £9.99, I could scarcely believe it was labelled correctly! I'd been after a '90s style strappy number since last year, so, having rejected the ubiquitous daisy print jersey versions which are still all too close a reminder of my wardrobe aged 10, and the lace-trimmed satin versions which still somehow feel a little too "Welcome to the Playboy Mansion", finding this felt like the answer to all my prayers - not only free from flora, fauna and fripperies, but perfect for both day and night! I decided to style it up (and down) 3 ways, from grunge to glam, in honour of its '90s heritage... How would you wear yours?
Grunge
Dress: H&M (Current), Boots: Primark
Casual
Dress: As Above, T-Shirt: H&M (Past Season), Trainers: M&S (Autograph Kids!)
Glam
Dress: As Above, Jacket and Shoes: Both Primark (Past Season)
I have to give a special mention to my "DIY" '90s style choker... Having relinquished all my original velvet versions years ago (darnit!), I spent much of Easter Monday scouring my accessories for some kind of substitute... and eventually came up with this jewelled detachable bra strap! Bought from Primark a couple of years ago to glam up strapless dresses, it does the job perfectly, and, of course, it's even adjustable - win!
