To Keep or give away...my self-designed dress

Hi friends, feels good to be back on the blogosphere. Been away for important personal reasons which I will definitely share later. Not sure of how frequently I would blog but I would if my schedule permits me as blogging is one of my favorite pastimes. I have missed all my blogmates. Wish I could mention names but I am kinda in a rush...sure you know yourselves; you are on my blog list. (...Smiling as I reminisce.)
...Mind jogging back to the main subject...

Take a look at this picture!

What do you think of the dress?

I actually designed it myself and instructed my tailor to be creative with the neckline and sleeves as my brain blanked out when I wanted to sketch those parts. I actually gave her an idea of what I wanted it to look like but she didn’t get it at all, not even a mile close. Thus, each time I pick up the dress, I look at the ruffles and smile; but as I raised my eyes up and see the neckline and sleeves, the smile dwindles into a slight scowl, tempting me to give out the dress. I have been feeling this way since the first time I tried the dress on. Some people do adore it; but when I compare it with what I initially pictured, giving it away comes to mind. My brother even suggested I sell it on OLX (funny...Seyi Law would love it though.)

On Saturday while combing my wardrobe for what to wear to church on Sunday, I stumbled upon my pink dress again and decided to wear it one more time before giving it away; hence, the pictures for remembrance sake.

 I don't know if you guys noticed the long chain?

 
 

I got it from Avon with a pair of matching earrings. It's a chandelier necklace which was worn by Fergie in the brochure. I placed my order and got it after a few weeks, though it came late. My colleague introduced me into the Avon clique and I am 'loving' their collections. It is my latest jewel; totally crazy about it. 

Staring at the pictures all over again, I could successfully pull off a cute rock chic look with a fitted black jacket and my pair of black Clarks leather boots.
