Is this frock hare print? Is it bunnies*? Am I mad? Is it March? To the last two questions, the answer is yes. To the two others, I dunno. It's a cute print though, no?
*And is it a sign that I've watched entirely too much Buffy that I type that and want to scream "It must be BUNNIES"?
On a slightly more serious note, it's Fairtrade Fortnight and the dress is from People Tree. I wish I could buy stuff from there more often but you should know me by now - I am a) stingy with my money and b) a bit of a charityshopaholic. Hence I lurk on the website when the sales are on (and there are some lovely frocks on there at the moment, argh the temptation) and try and use my minimal shopping budget wisely.
I feel a bit more virtuous about how I've spent my money because it's supporting a company and a cause that I believe in and is way better than investing in yet more poorly made, unethically produced tat. Also, look at the frock! It's awesome, and really lovely fabric. I would so much rather have one of these than three nasty Primark frocks that will fall apart after one wear.
POCKETS!
SHOULDER BOWS!
Dress - People Tree
Cardi - New Look
Necklace - gift
Shoes & bracelet - Dorothy Perkins
ps - unsponsored post, just a company I really admire.

That dress, that dress, that dress! Gorgeous and navy blue really suits you.
ReplyDeleteWant.
Bunny, bunny, bunny!
Love this dress on you! The bunny ears are so sweet!
ReplyDeleteI love that People Tree are doing great looking clothes now. My pet hate back in the day was that ethical clothes often looked very...erm...hippy/tree-dweller. Not that I don't own clothes like that but I'd rather have ethical clothes for all places and looks. Things are so much better now.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous shape dress on you, and love the print.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely worth checking People Tree out!
xx
Pockets always swing it for me :D
ReplyDeleteI have 2 things to say..
ReplyDelete1. Yayyyyyy you're looking at the camera!!
2. There is NO such thing as too much Buffy.
The zoo grows ;-)
Gorgeous dress! I love anything with bunnies or hares on.
ReplyDeleteI love how you've paired it with that cardi, it's a lovely colour :) xo
ReplyDeleteThat dress is just too cute. I'd like to say bunnies but as they have long ears I'm gonna plump for hares!
ReplyDeleteI can see from your Scavenger Hunt photo that you are incredibly busy, but was wondering, has your parcel arrived yet????
Z xx
I agree with Perdita, so much better than sludge green sacks made of hemp. That pattern is great and the shape is very cute. Must track down old episodes of Buffy.
ReplyDeleteps. I finished answering your tag questions, they're up now.
I love them too! I love the feew items I hvae from there!!
ReplyDeleteI love the dress, it looks fab on you! I love the shoes too!
ReplyDeleteA gal can NEVER watch too much Buffy!
ReplyDeleteSUCH a darling frock!
Loving that first pic,you are showing your sweet side......!!!

Hmmm, hares I reckon. The dress is fab - I too lurk on the People Tree website withot often buying as the one downside for me is that my budget really can't stretch that far and so I stick to vintage and charity shops. I really admire what thy're doing though and in the past year I've become so much more aware of how important it is to champion sustainable, ethically made clothes.
ReplyDeleteThat dress is fabulous and all the better for it's ethical origins. x
ReplyDeleteBunnies and pockets = instant winner.
ReplyDeleteAaah love it, this dress may be perfect! (all clothing should have pockets, I'm always scrabbling for hankies...) :)
ReplyDeleteThat dress looks quality, you can tell. I would say bunnies even though they have long ears, it's lovely you look fab in it!

ReplyDeleteFab dress! I love the print and the shape!
ReplyDeletePOCKETS FTW. I love dresses with pockets and print. It's sold out on People Tree, but you're right, if it wasn't on sale… 0_0
ReplyDeleteA from A + B in the Sea
Absolutely gorgeous dress :) You look lovely Alex!
ReplyDeleteI have become quite a fan of navy in the past few weeks, it's a great alternative to black I find. Great dress and of course the print is fab xxx
ReplyDeleteAHHH I love that dress! I would wear that in a second. I love the print. LOVE the print. It looks adorable on you and I love how you styled it. I want those shoes! You look great!
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty dress. I've found a couple of People Tree items in charity shops lately (which I sold on Ebay as they weren't my size) and I was impressed by both the style and the quality. A good buy! xxx
ReplyDelete:D It must be bunnies :D
ReplyDeleteCC xXx
Love it. Must check out people tree now for myself. Your waist looks so tiny and your legs really long! Maybe you should be OddSocksAnya...
ReplyDeleteThat dress is so cute on you!
ReplyDeleteBunnies! Bunnies! IT MUST BE BUNNIES!!!!
ReplyDeleteI was going to be all like, 'Oooh, I really like that dress, cute shape and print' and then you brought out the Buffy quotes and I am standing in my room giving you a standing ovation. But basically, YAY. This dress is gorgeous and you look stuuuunning! (And tiny!)
oooo me likey the (possibly) bunnies dress! sooo good!the cardi looks cute with it too. i've heard lots of good things about People Tree i really wanna try some of their things for sure!
ReplyDeleteBUNNIES! Definitely bunnies. You've just made me go and buy this!
ReplyDeleteIs this the short version? I was going to go for the long one but it's out of stock now.
It's my birthday in a week, I'm allowed a dress with bunnies on...
Aw, look at their ears! They're tremndous. I like most things bunny orientated and double bonus on the ethical slant. Go you!
ReplyDeleteI love your dress! I'm a huge fan of People Tree as well! :) I'm also always waiting for the sale as it is quite pricey, but oh so beautiful and very well made.
ReplyDeleteI wish I've noticed this bunny dress before and snapped one for myself. I have one with birds :)
