Today's frock is from ASOS, who know a thing or two about turning out on-trend pieces at kind-on-wallet prices. This red crepe dress is an updated spin on the classic pencil dress, with an elasticated waist that creates a beautiful drape-y effect. It also looks a lot more expensive than AU$88 (£45).
The soft folds around the front and back flatter the figure, and the sleeves provide coverage for the back of your arms. (So many of you ask me about frocks with sleeves!)
The V-neckline is also flattering on just about every figure, and it's particularly favoured by the Duchess of Cambridge.
This style is perfect for trans-seasonal weather and there are two handy pockets - great for mums who seem to collect a variety of Lightening McQueens, tissues and Autumn leaves (or is that just me?).
It's the kind of easy-to-wear frock that you can just throw on and go with minimal accessories, as the vibrant red hue, draped details and shawl-like effect at the back combine to create their own sense of drama.
It's available in sizes up to AU/UK 18, and there is also a black maternity version. Nice one, ASOS.
Tell me, is this dress a yay or a nay? And do you also look for dresses with sleeves?
