Hi everyone! Today I'm taking part in a one off Five Take, with 4 other fab bloggers, to show how we could style the same dress from the new Project D Collection at Simply Be. Check out how the others styled theirs:

 ♥ Lauren from Pocket Rocket Fashion ♥

♥ Amy from These Girls Turn Heads ♥

♥ Em from Oh, The Places You'll Go ♥

♥ Wendy from 52, 46, 54 ♥

We all picked out the same dress, although some of us went for the black version instead. Obviously I chose the ivory, & styled it in a very me way, with pink & purple colours, flowers & a novelty dog handbag. The dress itself is extremely pretty, with gorgeous scalloped edging, & pretty floral lace detail at the top which is covered by my cardi, sorry!). It's fully lined, so no worrying about underwear being shown through the dress, haha! It was just a bit too cold to wear it alone, as it's probably intended, being a summer style dress.

The length is probably a bit longer than I'd usually wear, but not too long. I am 5"9 though, so if you are shorter, it will probably be past your knees. The fit is also great, I ordered my usual size 26, & it was a perfect fit, especially at the waist, where things can be a little large sometimes on me. It does have elastic at the back for comfort/ease of fitting.

The only problem I had is that the straps aren't adjustable, & I found them a bit big, which is probably why you can see the back of the dress dipping in these pics. The other downside is the price, this is £90, & whilst a lovely dress, I'm not sure I would have paid that much for it. I would have preferred to see it selling for £50 or less, but as this is one of Simply Be "designer" type brands, prices are usually quite a bit more than normal.
