You're irreplaceable, a collectible, just like fine china


Seeing as the latest post is all about Giambattista Valli, and that collection was inspired by fine porcelain china I figured this song was appropriate. Plus it just puts me in a great mood, which along with the weather makes me smile! So, the Valli collection was definitely pretty to say the least...definitely the kind of collection for those who are ultra feminine. Seeing as its summer, a lot of high street shops have summer clothing that is actually very similar to the aesthetic of the collection so I thought I'd round up some of my favourites to make the most of this gorgeous weather!:



This cocoon shaped dragon print dress from Miss Selfridge, which is a pretty close match to a similar loose fitting dress seen on the right from the Valli collection and only costs £65!

Another Miss Selfridge dress (pictured right), aptly named the China Blue, very pretty and definitely channels the oriental vibe of the blue china pattern but it's a very light and informal summer dress - perfect with the weather we're having and again, only £65!

A slightly more colourful take on the collection, this dress maintains the sheer quality of a lot of the dresses at Valli, and would be such a cute summer prom dress! I don't even know how, but Miss Selfridge have somehow managed to come out with countless dresses that look like they've taken direct inspiration from this collection. At only £55 for this gorgeous dress, how can you really say no?

In keeping with this how delicate print and blue/white colour scheme, cue one of my favourite pieces I've seen so far which mixes a modern silhouette with a beautiful print, making it appropriate for both day and night. The cutout back detail is sexy, adding a nice contrast to the sweetness of this playsuit below. Bravo Topshop, only for £50 I think this is so worth it, so cute! (also if you have  a student card, it comes down to £45!)

Co-ords are having a revival for a while now, and this newest addition from Topshop have to be my favourite yet - the print is SO NICE. The blue colour is vibrant without hurting your eyes, and the floral print is beautiful! In particular, I'd really recommend the shorts they are a really great length (not too short so no fear of anything peeking out!) and are a super flattering cut, high waisted so perfect with a cute white crop top and blazer! I can imagine all the possible outfits already!
