I posted about my desire for a dress which was vaguely nun like and fell in love with the black and white Charles Anastase dress. It was just beyond beautiful and at over £600 also beyond what I'd pay for it.
Roll on a few months later and high street shop Warehouse bring out a lovely little bubble hemmed Anastase-esque dress complete with white peter pan collar. A much more manageable £40 to boot. I might even add some white buttons.
I was delighted with the dress when it arrived and actually felt it had to remain demure (as opposed to me 'de-prettifying it), so I teamed it with some over knee socks, big glasses and brogues. But for some bizarre reason, the dress is calling out to me to be worn with a feather head piece of some description.
These Nina Ricci ones would do the job perfectly. The downside is they do look slightly like a pigeon had died on your head, so perhaps a feathered fascinator would be a better option.
These fascinators from Ribbons and Pearls are perfect. Obviously intended for weddings but I they would work beautifully out-with their intended confines.
