New Look graphic column dress

I waffled on about long skirts yesterday but I’m far from done! I came across this image at work and this might well be my first non-homemade bit of long skirt. As much as I love sunny cheerful clothes it can get a bit boring, hippyish and ever so slightly Shipwrecked in the warmer months, this dress is a perfect antidote to summer sloppiness. The print is a really great take on Alexander McQueen’s dizzying industrial print from last season and has an added African feel. It’s got a real ’90s vibe, and the column-like shape is as far removed from WAG festival frocks as poss. I reckon I’d wear it with my H&M cream wedges from last year (that are ever so slightly Opening Ceremonyish) and a slouchy Uniqlo mens cardie. Head to toe high street, who’d a thunk it?! Also, it really needs Magenta Devine style sunglasses and maybe even a mini rucksack, ha.
