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!

Putting my money where my mouth is: Havaianas

The best flip flops on the market, in my opinion, are classic Havaianas.  They are well made, comfortable, durable and perfect for the summer.  They come in a huge range of colours and styles - and prices.  The really basic, slim ones shouldn't cost more than about £15 - and should be found for less.  But, as ever, with a bit of canny research, one should be able to find a fabulous pair or two for no more than about £20.  They shouldn't cost more than this.

My sister and I took advantage of a 20% off offer at Office a few weeks ago and managed to get these wonderful versions for just under £18 which go well with our pedicures I think!  I love the colours and the sole is quite thick and sturdy.
As much as I adore the pink, I'm now searching for a more neutral version that will match a few more outfits.   There's a sale on at USC at the moment which includes these, so I am tempted by these silver and white ones, reduced from £24 to £18.
Other sites worth looking at, that often have deals include:

  • Amazon - need to have a good browse to get the colour, size and price that's required.
  • Matalan - there's some really basic ones for just £10.
  • John Lewis - slightly more pricey but a lovely selection.

Terrific Top: Firetrap Rose Vest Top from USC

Sometimes, a simple vest top is all one needs.  Throw over jeans, shorts, a skirt - any bottoms will do - and it will keep you cool and stylish.  Of course, there is a plethora of these sorts of tops out there and so customers are spoilt for choice in terms of pattern, shape, colour, price - everything really!

I've spotted this cotton vest top by Firetrap, which is on offer at USC.   The colours and the style means that it will go with anything and look fab; it's perfect for summer.  I think this top would be perfect for a festival with cut off denim shorts, long socks and some colourful Hunter wellies.  The rose, feather and safety pin pattern adds a touch of feminine edginess - almost a punk element - which is always a good thing!

It has been reduced from £20 to £12 and delivery at USC is free for orders over £50 (otherwise it's £3.99 for standard).  It is available in sizes extra small to extra large and also comes in grey with black or coral with black.
I'm planning on doing a post on festival fashion soon so let me know what your festival staples are in the comments below!
