I have a confession to make. My name is Sophie and I am addicted to buying dresses I don't need. Asos is my latest drug. I don't really know why I go mad for summer dresses as England doesn't seem to like the sunshine - i'll get much more wear about of A/W clothes as they'll get worn for 11 months out of the year. I completely fell in love with this as soon as I spotted it on the 'New In' section and went on a bit of a mad selling spree on Ebay until I could afford it. I don't feel guilty about buying dresses with Paypal money as it's not real right? My boyfriend thinks this makes me insane for thinking like this.

I wore this out over the weekend for a trip to church but with some nude heels. I'm not usually the hugest fan of church services but my dad's stepbrother is catholic and he arranged for a special mass to be held in honour of my nan. It was a really nice sentiment and a lovely way for my nan to be remembered.We went out for a family meal afterwards to a lovely Spanish restaurant nearby where we stuffed our face with wine and good food.

I finally booked my holiday so shall be jetting off to Bulgaria for two sun-filled weeks in September. Has anyone ever been to Sunny Beach? Any tips?

  3. That dress is a beauty and I bet your Nan would have loved how pretty you look in it.
    I haven't been to Bulgaria but I know a couple who spend 5 months a year at Sunny Beach so it must have something (they spend 6 months in Goa)! This website is sometimes useful: http://www.holidaytruths.co.uk/forum/bulgaria-discussion-forum-f12.html

  4. Anything with spots on is a winner in my eyes. And no, Paypal money isn't real - think of it as free purchases!! x

  11. Gorgeous dress Soph, you pull of the midi style so well, chic granny lol but seriously you don't look granny ish at all. If I wore this, teamed with my crazy hair and I'd be full on zimmering with the other grannies. Can't go wrong with polka dots either
