Victoria Beckham inspired dress

My Husband and I are watching the World Cup games recorded, in the evening, once the kids are in bed. It is far more relaxing and enjoyable without a 6 and 8 year old asking every 5 minutes “who is the yellow team?” or “which goal keeper is he?” etc. etc. So in order to avoid the fervor around the England game I thought I would do a quick outfit post to try and avoid any updates or scores. I just have to make it through a hair appointment with the kids before I can lock myself away till later when I can enjoy our inevitable victory with a glass of white.

I adore this dress and I know it will be disliked by many – but hey I like to try new things. It can make me look shapeless where I need shape, but I love how it accentuates my legs. It’s from Asos and when I ordered it it was also available in white. This is a US 6 so it fits large. The sandals are new from Nine West. I was looking for the perfect mid height heel for running around in on vacation and these fit the bill. The black are in on sale on Zappos.com and I also have the orange/coral pair which are lush. Yes – I have so many issues with sandals fitting my wide feet and curly toes, that once I find a style I buy in multiple colors! I’ve found them in the UK too – here and here in black suede. These are a US 8 and I am normally an 8 or 8.5 but hate too much sole showing in sandals so tend to always take an 8 in a heeled sandal.
