High & Low

While we were in Berlin for the KISS concert, we just had to visit my favourite store for tall ladies - Long Tall Sally. I had gotten their summer catalogue and was intrigued to see some of their new clothes. One of my favourites from the beginning was this dress. I knew, should it fit me and form a sillouette like in the ad picture on me, then I just had to have it. Well, here it is - my new favourite dress for the hot summer days. Probably one of my best buys this summer!

I put it on in the shop and felt instantly dressed even without shoes or any accessories. It has such a nice feel to it. It's as comfortable as wearing pj's and as pretty as any of my fancy dresses. I love the soft and light fabric, it flows nicely around my knees and ankles and it is the perfect length for once. I  always have issues with dresses as I have those super long legs, but a normal upper body. I fit in most dresses on the top, but they are often just too short. Don't get me wrong, short dresses are awesome, but for me short means long T-shirt length. That's just too short.

This dress is perfect though, it hides my knees (I got a scar on one of them and don't like it too much) and it still shows some leg. Perfect! I can see myself wearing it all day every day during our summer vacation.

Doesn't the print match perfectly with my new color changing sandals. Totally unintended, but a great match.

Love your high-low ... a favorite style of mine and flattering on you! The flu was terrible this year, and I'm sorry that you've got a case of it. Lots of liquid, rest and all the things that make you feel happy ... new clothes help!
