Trying new dress styles ft. Missguided

When it comes to dresses, I tend to stick to the same colours, cuts and fabrics. My go-to colour is black but I also like white, grey and the odd bright shade if I want to stand out.

As for cuts, I tend to favour knee-length dresses which are fitted with modest necklines (i.e. no cleavage). With fabrics, I choose cotton, denim, lace or leather.

Recently, I’ve experimented with a few styles that I wouldn’t normally go for. Instead of browsing and thinking ‘That’s not very me’, I threw caution to the wind and ordered anyway. Complete rebel, I know!

Time to mix things up with Missguided!

First up, I went for this wrap tie waist shirt dress. Initially, I was worried that the silky fabric might look naff but once I slipped it on, I couldn’t take it off. I loved the look and feel of it! Slinky and seriously comfortable.

Normally I’d steer clear of plunging necklines but as I have small boobs, I decided to try it. There’s no danger of me popping out!

Originally, I wasn’t sure about the wrap style as I thought it would be unflattering on my petite frame. However, the tie waist helps pull me in and define what curves I have. Plus, I was pleasantly surprised by the lilac shade!

Next up, it’s the satin tux dress. I really like tuxedo dresses but never bought one until now as I used to think, ‘I need boobs to pull that off!’

Not really. I wore it regardless. Now I’m a firm believer that small-chested gals can rock low necklines too. Yay!

Last but not least is the frill front cami dress. Again, I wouldn’t usually go for something like this because I’d be wary of the colour (would I wear it again?) and whether the frill was too fussy.

Nevertheless, I was glad that I chose it! The colour makes a refreshing change and the frill is actually pretty cute.
