30 Mar ASOS Printed Bodycon Dress
Happy Monday!
Hope you had a great weekend. I was able to go out and enjoy the weather. I wanted to wear the dress you have seen before, only styled for winter. This time, you get the dress, as is, vintage-inspired pencil dress in with a sweetheart neckline and purple print.
This is one of my favorite styles of dresses. I love the retro style. The pencil dress with a sweetheart neckline and pretty print. Not a floral, but colors of navy, maroon, plum, purple. This dress is versatile and can be worn year round. I styled it in the winter with boots and wore a Dolman sleeve cable knit sweater over top, but was really wanted to show you the shape and style of the dress. Vintage-inspired, yes indeed!
From Wikipedia:
- sweetheart necklines (side edges linear, curved bottom edge concave down)
- these have a curved bottom edge that is concave down and usually doubly scalloped to resemble the top half of a heart. The side edges often converge on the neck, similar to halter necklines. Sweetheart necklines accentuate the bosom.
- I love the bodycon style as well. Comfort meets style, meets comfort. To me, if a dress is as comfortable as a nightgown, I am all in. I know this doesn’t sound very fashion saavy, but hey, this is true!
- My purple vintage chandelier earrings and necklace ,accentuate the colors in the dress as the color scheme stays within the purple field. My new Penelope Coach bag is a lovely spring shade of lilac, which just reminds me of spring. You all know what a handbag girl I am.
- Do you wear bodycon or fitted dresses?
Have a great week!

Posted at 21:20h, 31 MarchJess you are rockin’ the floral dresses lately. I love the sweetheart neckline on this dress and the necklace you chose to put with it is the perfect choice – very pretty and feminine. Thank you for linking up with SHOE AND TELL on Style Nudge!

Posted at 08:00h, 31 MarchYou wear it so well! I wore an old Boden dress much like yours yesterday, but somehow it didn’t feel as much like me as it did when I bought it. I felt so feminine, not tough enough 😉 Floral dresses are very springy & lovely, but I’m going back to black today 🙂
