I love this luxurious silk lace midi skirt by Hermione de Paula. Simple yet chic and elegant, it adds an element of class and style to any outfit. It could be worn with tailored classics, such as a crisp blouse and courts for a smart office outfit. Or it could be glammed up with a colourful top and accessories and some killer heels for the evening. Perfect! Originally £743, it's been reduced by 75% to £185.

Delightful Dresses: Wiggle Dresses from Unique Vintage
Wiggle dresses are great for most figures, as the top half flatters the bust and chest, the stretchy fabric holds everything in nicely and they look utterly divine by bringing out one's gorgeous, feminine curves! Inspired by vintage forties fashion, they are perfect for making a confident statement on a night out paired with some heels and cool accessories.
Unique Vintage has many gorgeous wiggle dresses on sale at the moment - in fact, they have loads of gorgeous products on sale (up to 70% off) at the moment! The first I love is this black and white spotty Bettie Mae puff sleeve fitted dress. It's made from a stretchable, comfortable fabric so should fit really well. The puffed sleeves add an element of cute femininity and polka dots are always fabulous! Reduced from $108 to $71 (so about £50), it's still available in size small.
The other wiggle dress on the site that I love is this super girlie candy pink Stop Staring Rosey fitted day dress. It has a very slight snake print sheen throughout and contrasting black trim to create a really glamourous look. I also love the contrast between the pink and black - always a winning combination in my view. It's available in sizes extra large to 3x large and has been reduced from $162 to $118 (about £75).
Don't forget about the ongoing discount voucher code for Unique Vintage - 10% off full-priced items if you sign up for their newsletter.

Delightful Dress: AX Paris Comic Midi Dress from USC
The comic print trend is still very much en vogue and there are loads of fabulous patterns and styles available. I've already spotted this brilliant pencil skirt, which I like for its quirkiness and idiosyncrasy and I do love a man in a Superman t-shirt....
But I want more! And so it shall be. I have been coveting this AX Paris comic print midi dress from USC for ages now but it's been full price the whole time. However, it's now on sale - originally £22, it's reduced to just £15. It will be so easy to wear - simply team with a pair of black patent heels and heads will turn! This body con dress will really show off one's feminine silhouette - the elastane means it should hold everything in, so don't be scared! Channel your inner superhero and fly away in style!

Splendid Skirt: Peridot London Hopkins Wrap Leather Pencil Skirt from My-Wardrobe.com
It seems a new trend for AW13 is the asymmetrical, jagged edged wrap skirt. They've been spotted on the catwalks of all sorts of designers including Prada, Band of Outsiders, Emporio Armani, Salvatore Ferragamo and Acne, so definitely a popular style for the season! Plain, patterned, neutral and colourful - anything goes as long as it's a wrap.
These skirts are actually very versatile. A funky, geometric patterned one could be paired with a plain t-shirt for an offbeat, casual look. Or team a dark, plain one with a blazer and classic white blouse for a chic, office look. Choose a floral one and pair with a light summer top for an ethereal, delicate look. Or match the skirt and top for an elegant, evening look.
My favourite that I have found, however, is this fantastic, Hopkins leather one by Peridot London, available on the My-Wardrobe.com site. It would be pretty much perfect for any occasion, teamed with the right pieces and accessories. I'd wear it with a white top, but then pair with killer neon heels and jewellery for a really stunning look.
It's brand new, so no discounts or sales and it's £370 - but it's a quality, timeless, investment piece. My-Wardrobe.com are offering free worldwide delivery until the end of the month with the code GLOBALSHIP so that's something at least!

Delightful Dress: Hybrid Jailhouse Pencil Dress from Lovarni
Another day, another sale! Today I've been perusing the Lovarni site, which is an independent fashion retailer who are offering up to 75% off in their sale. They stock a range of brands including Little Mistress, A Postcard from Brighton, Lipsy, Jarlo, Rare and Marc B and they are always worth checking, as they have a price match promise plus 10%, so you should always manage to get the best deal from them.
Lovarni is also the home of the Hybrid brand, which has been spotted on celebrities and other famous faces. The dresses are made from a super stretch body sculpting fabric and elegant, sophisticated styles that flatter all figures. I've found this fabulous, 1950's vintage-inspired Jailhouse pencil dress in their sale. With a blazer, it could be worn to the office but then whip that jacket off and you've got the perfect dress for a cocktail or two in the evening! With the nipped in, belted waist and bodycon fit with a hint of elastane, it will hug one's figure and flatter perfectly. Team with killer heels for a stylish and chic look which oozes sophistication and glamour.
The dress has been reduced from £95 to £45 and is still available in a variety of colours and sizes. I would chose this fairly neutral cream and black version and team with colourful accessories and a bright lipstick, but I'm also quite taken with the fuchsia pink and black version.
What colour would you choose? Leave your comments below!

Delightful Dress: Pinup Couture Dixiefried Peasant Dress in 1940s Dragon Print from TopVintage
I've only gone and found another fabulous online boutique! TopVintage is based in the Netherlands, but ships its retro-inspired 1940's, 50's and 60's clothes, shoes and accessories to the UK and beyond. It's updated on a daily basis with some delightful and unique finds, so definitely worth checking regularly!
As with all of these fantastic stores, it's so hard to choose just one item for the blog, so I have gone for something slightly different this time. This edgy yet elegant high-waisted pencil dress is stunning, with its two-piece effect of the matte blue, structured peasant top with the original vintage painted textile dragon print on the skirt. With lots of stretch for comfort and sleeves that can be worn on or off the shoulder, this dress will flatter a variety of sizes and shapes to create a gorgeous hourglass silhouette.
It's €129.95 but until 30th May, there's 10% off with code TVUK0513 making it about €114 or £97.
