Romwe is puuuuurrrr-fect



I've always heard amazing things about romwe and I decided today would be the day I have a gander on their website. Safe to say, I wasn't let down! They have so much beautiful clothing it's unreal! The first two things that caught my eye were these two lovely dresses. Now, just like a lot of people, I am a bit cat crazy (not sure if I should be proud to admit that) and when I saw these I instantly thought "I need them". First dress is the Cat Face White Dress which I think is adorable with the little net ribbon detail on the front. The cats face covers up your breasts which means it's probably not a good idea to wear a bra with this dress as you would be able to see it, a bit of tape or maybe a few plasters and you should be fine. Although, I do think if you were to wear this casual with a nice over sized denim jacket or cardigan you might be able (that's a big might) to get away with a strapless bra, as long as the jacket or cardigan covers up the sides. The mesh that covers the upper part of the dress is gorgeous and isn't plain, it has white little dots over it. The second dress is the Black Catty Dress (can be bought in white), I would rather this dress in black because it seemed a lot warmer. A winter must have with such warm, fluffy looking material. Perfect for a night out or just to college! Even though you probably would be able to spot a little bit of fluff on this a mile away, it is gorgeous. I think the cute ribbon on this dress makes it stand out from normal cat style dresses. From the pictures of the model wearing it, it does seem to be quite short so I don't think I'd ever wear it without a pair of tights underneath them. Some might prefer this dress to the first as you can safely wear a strapless or a transparent strap bra under it.

I think they're both so gorgeous and I am tempted to ask good old Santa to bring me them, hopefully I'd have been a good enough girl for them both!

My first motel rocks purchase.

                                                                          Teagan Dipped Hem Dress in Black and Taupe
I had a wedding to go to on Wednesday and for ages I was looking for a dress. I went to the usual places of topshop, river island and searched online with boohoo and missguided but found nothing. There were a lot of nice black dresses but I'm a strong believer in wearing colour for a wedding so I decided against them. I then remembered about motel rocks, I've never bought from there before but I'd heard such good things about it. After picking between two dresses I decided to get this one because I loved the dip hem skirt and the black top of it meant I could pair it up with black shoes.
It arrived quite quickly, which I'm super happy about and I was really happy with the price (£18.00 in the sale, really can't even think about complaining about that price because it's so good). Anyway, unlike the picture and the description the skirt wasn't a pink or a nude sandy colour, it was more of a nude beige. I was a bit let down with that because I was looking forward to the nice pale pink skirt. The top of the dress was a stretchy material which didn't look tacky unlike most stretchy material, luckily as well I could hide my bra under it. It was a nice length, I did worry a bit because I am very short and I was scared that it would be by my feet but it was calf length. I paired this dress up with my suede wedged boots from newlook that I got last year that have a gold zip on the side. Apart from the colour of the skirt, I am very pleased with motel rocks. I don't think I'll be buying much coloured dresses off them again in case I am slightly disappointed again like I was with the skirt of this but I would buy other clothing off them. I also would recommend motel rocks with the price and the quick delivery.
