You might have noticed that I haven't shared many outfit posts lately, and there's been a reason, it's because my camera decided it didn't want to focus anymore and well, without a camera I didn't feel like I wanted to share outfit photos. I know I could have used my phone, but I'm a stubborn creature so I just sort of stopped for bit. And then suddenly, my camera seems to have decided it will focus again after months of not focusing, so fingers crossed I am back baby! What better way to get back into sharing outfits than with a beautiful dress sent to me by my faves Navabi?
This is the Navabi linen fit and flare dress*, and I've never owned anything like it before. Stu my husband is always telling me how comfy and cool linen is but I've never worn it, so when I saw this dress crop up I figured it was the perfect time to give it a go! I definetly should have ironed it (sorry Navabi!) but honestly I'm super lazy and never iron anything so I didn't. The quality of this dress is something else. It's fully lined and just immaculately made, which is standard Navabi if you've ever tried anything from them. I picked out the pale pink colour (I'm feeling all sorts of inspired by Amanda Apparel's colour palette lately) but it's also available in black and a green that is absolutely to die for. It has no stretch to it at all, so if you are inbetween sizes or are particularly busty, I'd opt for a size up.
To make this outfit a bit more 'me' I popped on a pair of pink Converses and my beloved Plus Equals pleather jacket with zip off sleeves. And of course massive oversize sunglasses! The fabric of this dress means it'll be nice and light and comfy for a full day of wear which for me is always key, I love to be comfy. I've not worn much pale pink but I am loving this colour and think I need more now.
It has no sleeves and a cute little cut out on the neckline that I think it the perfect detail in a relatively simple dress. You could easily add a sequin jacket to this and it's perfect for a summer wedding. How I've styled it is really casual, but it's a versatile piece with a lot of ways you could wear it. Navabi offer something different for the plus size fashion world in long lasting high end designer styles. While their pieces are more expensive because they are high end, I think there's room in the fashion world for every kind of fashion and am grateful to Navabi for bringing this to the plus size world!
I'm so looking forward to warmer days and summer dresses!
Much love,

This dress is delightful on you Kitty - I love the pink palette with the edgy jacket! I never iron either ... I don't even know if I own an iron!

ReplyDeletethank you!
DeleteI never really think about linen when I go clothes shopping but this dress is lovely!! I like that you have paired it with that great jacket. Navabi is definitely a place I need to start looking at for clothes. Also, ironing is overrated! Haha!

Yeah the creasing is the only thing that puts me off, but my husband hates watching me iron so I'll make him do it haha xx
