2 Dress Trends To Try This Season
25 July 2012Gosh Celebrity Fashion asked me to check out their latest collection for review :)
I had a really good browse in the store and the best thing about it… is their fab collection of dresses. And their prices were good – low to middle of the range!
I found lots of pieces featuring new colours, cool trends and lovely, statement styles. They also have FREE shipping Australia wide and hassle-free returns, which is nice. Of course, they also ship internationally.
I selected a few items, but these 2 dresses were my favourite of the lot.

The Peplum Dress
The peplum is one of this season’s hottest trends. A peplum is a little “skirt” that sits on the waist of a skirt, dress or along the bottom hem of a top. It’s fun, flirty and very feminine. You have to try it! It transforms your silhouette, accentuating the waist, making you look like you’ve got sexy curves, and a hot hourglass figure.
I really like the peplum style. As long as the peplum is not too ruffly, I think it really suits short and petite women.
You can even buy skirts or dresses with removable peplums. So you can wear it from day time to night time.
This white strapless dress is called the Shutterbug Peplum Dress by Keepsake. I LOVE the clean lines and minimal detail. It is polished, sexy, and a perfect party dress for a night out!
The fit was nice and snug on the waist. The length was great on me. The fabric felt nice. If anything, I didn’t have enough boob mass to fill the bust area to it’s *fullest potential*… ahem.
But it looked good on, so I would still wear it.

The Print Dress
Finding a nice print dress that works well for both work and play can be tricky, especially if you want to find something that is colourful but not TOO colourful!
I really liked this Silk Dress by Honey and Beau. The print is so lovely – like a water themed oil painting by an Impressionist masters. The drapes and pleats are lovely too.
It features a tulip skirt, and a drape collar which have little drawstrings. On the left I loosened the drawstrings and the collar fell like silky ruffles on a deep V neckline. On the right I tightened the drawstrings and it gave the dress a higher and more modest neckline.
The website said that it was a “mini” dress. But for short ol’ me, the dress ended mid-thigh – which was perfect in my opinion!
Do check out the rest of the Honey and Beau items, as there are lots of nice stuff available!
Happy Shopping!
