I was very kindly asked if I’d like to review a couple of bits from the SS14 Claire Richards Collection for Fashion World. Umm yeh I do. This is the part where I get to brag about meeting her and how I unashamedly love Steps. Cue gratuitous opportunity to show a picture of me and Claire again…
Just hanging with my best buddy Claire. |
So the SS14 range is of course full of colour and lighter fabrics, swooshy maxi’s and cute prom dresses. I went for this beautifully embroidered dress and fab peep toe shoes. I really wanted this amazing white coat too but it wasn’t available at the time so I will have to try and purchase that a little later!
It’s really rather bloody beautiful isn’t it? It’s a tulip shape which I love and yes, it has POCKETSSSS. It’s a perfect knee length and has a zip to the back. The sleeves come just above the elbow.
I ordered the 22 (UK) and found it true to size. It is a fitted dress, so if you do prefer a bit more room, then I would size up, but it really is a great fit. It has some stretch to it so it’s very comfortable. The embroidery is so beautiful and the dress is great quality.
The shoes are insanely high but I was pleasantly surprised how comfortable and sturdy they felt. I’m presuming that’s because of the platform. I’m really impressed with the outfit. Top marks to Claire and Fashion World!
