The Scarlett & Jo dress is The Star obviously! Just look at it! The sweetheart neckline that I love so much. The sleeve length. How the waist and seams pull you in and give shape. The fishtail flare. The sumptuous velvet. This dress just exudes class and elegance and I am in LOVE!

I am wearing the size 28 but could have easily sized down to a 26. The length of this and the other maxi velvets look very long on the hanger but please give them a try on as they do rise on the wider body and this length is perfect on me with a small heel or flats. I am 5'3'' but do have a huge bust that pulls the length up an inch or two.

You may have seen me blog about this Accesorize fascinator recently as it was a very expensive £35 that I would never normally dream of paying for a headband but once I tried it on I knew it had to come home with me and I knew it was going to look fantastic with this dress. Same can be said for the reasonably priced fur stole from Yours Clothing!

I know I am spamming  you all with Scarlett & Jo but it is because they are bloomin fantastic and I am excited about what they are doing and where they are going. It is not very often at all that I love a dress so much that I want it in all colour varieties but Scarlett & Jo have me wanting all their dresses!

This dress is perfect and it is not the cheapest dress out there but it is a classic and will be one you pull out again and again for many years to come for those special occasions. Remember to sign up to the Scarlett & Jo Club to get 10% off purchases!

I am mega awesome excited to share my first Lollidot Scarlett & Jo dress with you all! So much so that I bought lighting to take better quality photos so you can see just how perfect they are! If you have not heard me go on and on about Lollidots then here is the story. I asked Gifi Fields of Scarlett & Jo if they would do more polka dots after I had bought a couple of tops with dots from their sample sale at StyleXL. I also asked for white wedding appropriate dresses! Ha! I had seen Gifi at the Evans Event in Meadowhall a few weeks before and was wearing an old 1940s style flower print dress by him and gushed about how I loved the fit, quality and style. He worked his magic and decided to do some polka dot 1940s style dress but was calling them Lollidots instead of polka dots after me! I know let me just pinch myself!

This is the first of 3 available in this beautiful dark teal with white dots. It is a stretch comfortable material that I love as it is easy to care for and basically wash and wear. This style has a keyhole neckline which I have never really been a fan of but on this dress with the loose sleeve and round neck I am loving it and will wear it just as often as the others. I am a shortie at 5'3'' and it sits below my knee. There is a tie at the back.

I am wearing a size 26 and it fits my shoulders well. I found this style to have lots of boob room which I need. This is the medium sized Lollidots. There is also a small and large in different style that I will show you soon or you could go look and buy them from the Scarlett & Jo website now!

I added a vintage cake brooch and brogue shoes and wore this to a kids party and was comfortable and still fancy without being overdressed. This is what I love about these dresses! They really can be dressed up or down for any occasion. Remember to sigh up to the Scarlett & Jo Club to get 10% off their website! Now here are lots of lovely bright and clear photos so look at!
