MY LITTLE WOODS T DRESS

Hi everyone, hope you are well.
Victoria & Woods T Dress
I had a few quite busy days looking after my cute granddaughter while her other grand parents went away and it exhausted me to much that when her parents finally took her home, I felt that I needed a holiday. I don't know how do they do it day in and day out, it is very hard work as.  I strongly believe that Mother Nature had her reasons when she designed our bodies and made sure that the women of a "certain age" should not have kids.

That said, it didn't stop me, a woman of the mentioned age, from trying on and then paying for this little black Woods T dress from Victoria and Woods clothing label.  I went to the shopping mall without any intention of looking for anything in particular, just let my mind wonder over the racks hoping that something would get my attention.  And this dress did.  It's simple T silhouette with a branded stand up collar caught my vision first and when I tried it on, turned out it has the perfect length, just to show enough skin above the knees.  Its a sport luxe look really appealed to me.

The salesgirl suggested that it will look great with sport shoes which are so on trend this season but I knew that she was referring to a much younger crowd and that it would not suit me.  As my younger daughter put it, I would be trying too hard.

So instead of going down this road, I've decided to give this dress a totally new look and feel and for that reason I kicked off the sneakers and put on low heel shoes, previously seen here

To elevate this look even further and keeping up with black and white colour scheme, I chose a vintage black envelope shaped bag with wide white trim and a black and white jacquard strap which replaced the boring original one.  Besides, it was rather short for me too.

We are in the midst of finalising our annual holidays and I will definitely pack this dress with me.  It is made of very soft organic cotton jersey which requires minimum effort to look after and is crease free.   I will not wear it with sneakers as it will be too predictable, however I am sure it will look great paired with ballet flats.  We will see.

  7. I love those fun patterned shoes you paired with this black dress. My kids are 10 and 12 and I swear I don't have the energy I had with them when they were babies and I was in my 20's! Ha!
