This is my second Scarlett & Jo Bridal Review! If you missed the first one you can see it HERE.

Lets jump right in! When S&J first announced a Bridal Collection I was over the moon and they have not disappointed. The quality, fit, style and glamour factor is what we have come to know and love about S&J. This Collection raises their already high standards to a new level.

Seeing the 4 options above this Lace Prom was the one that I thought would word best one my body shape but I have found both that I have tried are perfect and just a dream to wear. The comfort level on these dresses and all S&J dresses is something to be tried to be believed. This is a Classic 1950s Prom dress style but with 2016 technology. Made with fabric that breathes and stretches to fit a fat body all while being true to the Classic look.

The lace of this dress has a lot of stretch so it fits all sizes and shapes. There is no uncomfortable zips. It just slips on over your head. I did have to gently squeeze my extra large boobs in one by one as the waist has no stretch. Once they were in they were not going anywhere! I could dance in this dress with no boob problems.

The bust comes up enough to hide the front of your bra and a nude one is not visible through the intricate lace. The round neckline is soft and stretchy. The skirt has 3 layers with a poofy centre one to give the full skirt look and is soft and floaty like a cloud.

The dress comes with a white Ribbon which I switched out for a red one to match my sparkle shoes and glasses. As with all they can be styled with any colour accessories to go with your Wedding theme.

It came to just below my knee and I am 5'3'' for reference. This dress is beautiful as are all the Scarlett & Jo Bridal Collection dresses and will make any Bride feel like a Queen on her special day.

I am excited to share with you the New Scarlett & Jo Wedding Collection. If you follow S&J no doubt you will have seen these on some lovely ladies already but I did ask for Bridal when I asked Gifi for Polka Dots and again he has hit it out of the park! Sadly the Sweetheart Sleeveless dress on the right is now sold out but I should be able to show you the others in the coming weeks. They have really tried to make something for everyone and love that they are available at an affordable Bridal Budget.

I am wearing the Wrap Top Frill Front dress and have styled it in a Mermaid/Beach theme. I was surprised with how many layers of fabric are in this dress and it flows so well. It is a stretch material so is super comfortable to wear and with the floaty sleeves you will not get hot and bothered unless you want to! Wink wink!

I was sent the size 26 and it fit everywhere except my massive bust where is was tight and caused strange creases on my boobs so decided to try the 28 and it fit perfectly all over. The did worry the length may be too long but as you can see this is perfect. I am 5'3'' but it will be longer on someone with less boob and belly. I never have a problem with S&J lengths.

These dresses are show stoppers on their own but you know I love to style things to the max and when I saw this Starfish Headband on ebay from StarCrossedBoutique I knew it would be perfect with this dress. The comfort level of this dress is 10/10 you can wear this dress all day then eat in it and dance the night away and still look stunning.

Budget Bridal - Gatsby Lady Flapper

Here is another STUNNING little number from the amazing Gatsby Lady Collection! As with most of the Gatsby dresses this Flapper dress is available in other colour options. I chose the white as it was a traditional Bridal colour.

The Flapper dress is covered with sequins and beads to make the beautiful patterns that are classic Art Deco style. The dress has a stretchy white slip under under the beaded mesh. I did not notice the slip has slim straps and my only nude bra died last week! The top part of the dress could really fit most sizes. The bottom part is fitted and I am wearing the size 30 for reference.

This style will suit a small bust as is would drape more and be loose fitting. The waist has elastic in it so it will always give a good shape. The Angel sleeves are perfect for lose not wanting to bare arms but you get the lovely see through look due to the mesh.

I got the matching headband and it is all you need to complete the Vintage look. It is so simple but had such class and make a bold statement which is perfect for Bridal and at these prices they can fit nearly every Budget too!

I will be trying a few more styles in the future and look forward to sharing them with you.
