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.

Summer Staple: Pink & Green Floral Belted Bathing Suit from Unique Vintage

There's 20% off at Unique Vintage until tomorrow (28th May) with the code MEM20 so it's a great opportunity to stock up on some fab, retro pieces!

I love this pink, white and green floral swimsuit.  Fabulously retro, it's flattering in all the right places, with a modest but pretty sweetheart neckline and belted for a defined, feminine shape.  The pink ruffles add to the delicacy of this swimsuit.

Normally $97, with the discount it is $77.60 (about £51) and shipping is about $36 (£24).  It comes in sizes small to extra-large.

Delightful Dress: May Day Pink Floral Swing Dress from Unique Vintage

A classic 1950's Rockabilly swing dress will suit almost any woman, with its feminine hourglass silhouette, cinched waist and full skirt.  The trend can be taken to the max when combined with victory rolls, a net petticoat, bright lips and patent heels or it can be pared down with some simple flat pumps and a lovely cardi.  There are so many fantastic 50's inspired dresses out there but for this post, I've gone to sunny California to the site Unique Vintage.  It's a fabulous site full of vintage inspired clothing for men and women, as well as gifts and accessories, and they do ship to the UK.

It's been really hard to pick just one dress from the site as there are so many, but by checking what's in the sale in a decent range of sizes I have chosen this pink and white floral swing dress which is still available in sizes small to extra-large.  I think it's a really pretty way of wearing the trend without going overboard and the pink detailing in the middle makes the waist seem tiny!  This dress is perfect for summer and would look lovely at a garden party or wedding.  Originally $130, it's $68 in the sale with shipping about $38 - so all in all, about £68 delivered.  But to be honest, I'll be stocking up with some accessories and other goodies from the site to make the shipping costs more economical....!
