If you like it...Buy it twice?

On a trip to Camden recently, I stumbled across one of the Lily J London stores. The store itself is beautifully decorated with meticulous attention to detail, and the staff were very attentive. Whilst my mum was trying on clothes I noticed this 60's inspired blue embroidered shift dress, very similar to a Valentino number seen on the AW13 catwalks. Yves Klein Blue (cobalt) is one of my favourite colours this season (expect a blog post imminently), so I couldn't help but be drawn to this piece.

              (Please excuse the poor image quality, for some reason I thought it would be a good idea to do this at night...)

The plain turned-up sleeves mixed with the gorgeous detail of the dress contrast perfectly, the only thing that could have been added would be a plain collar, be it peter pan or not, however this dress works a dream as it is. As if I wasn't sold already, one of the shop assistants then brought the same dress over in a canary yellow colour, which I also fell in love with...

Priced at only £35 each, I thought they were a bargain and since I couldn't choose which one I preferred, I had to have both. Thank you student loan!
