My Dream Vintage Dress

This is how I feel in this dress!!

I Am Wearing :

Vintage Maxi Dress - c/o Beyond Retro

Fringe Boots - Topshop (old)

Jewellery - Topshop

When Beyond Retro asked me to go down to their Dalston store to find my dream vintage dress, I was both excited and mildly terrified at the same time. I love vintage and I love dresses AND I dream about them all the time, but what if they couldn't make my dreams come true? What if I traveled across London with a tummy full of dress shopping butterflies only to have them turned into vintage moth balls!

Alas all my fretting and mid-summer sweating was all in vain as I entered the fitting room with a basket full of (almost) 27 dresses! I managed to whittle the 27 down to 4 and came home with not 1 but 2 vintage dress dreams! 

The dream you see before you was a mere £20 - that my darlings is quiet possibly the dreamiest part!!

Yesterday I received an email asking me to donate some money to UNICEF in a very interesting way!

Dulux has teamed up with children’s charity UNICEF to give people the chance to ‘own’ a colour for £1.

The paint brand is offering people the opportunity to buy from a selection of 16.7 million colours – the number the average computer, smartphone and tablet can display – in an effort to raise £16.7million.

People who purchase a colour are able to rename it and have it displayed on a dedicated Dulux microsite. All money raised will go directly to the children’s charity UNICEF.

This is the colour that i bought ...

It was actually REALLY fun to chose my colour and give it a name, and WELL easy to donate you can just do it by TXT!!  Good times Good cause!
GO GET YOURSELF A COLOUR!!
