Newest Favorite Designer: French Connection ♥

SOOOOOO ... I've completely fallen in love with the designer French Connection =)

I've passed this designer's section in Bloomingdales hundreds of times but never gave it a chance!

..... until today.

Today after getting off work, I decided to check it out because I was eyeing this one dress

for the absolute longest time but never went to try it on.

I wish I had picture from their site of the particular one I fell in love with but all I have is

the picture of when I tried it on in the fitting room :(

In person you can see the color better. It's black with sparkly silver detail and patterns.

The size I'm wearing in my picture is a size 2 but it didn't fit the way I really wanted it to =(

The bottom was so loose! And worst of all ... this dress doesn't come in a 0!

I almost shed a tear at the register when I found out so I had to put it down and not buy it as planned.

Price: $148.00

Now for the dress that I actually bought =D

I picked this dress up on my way to the fitting room to try on the black dress above.

I actually thought I wouldn't even like it but much to my surprise, I'm in love with this dress!

This dress fits amazing!

There are padded shoulders built into this dress (which I was completely feining for),

and also featured a cute little peep hole in the back.

The size I'm wearing in this picture is a 0, and it definitely fit true-to-size.

With a pair of black heels or even a cute little blazer, this dress will do it.

I couldn't resist ....... so I bought it =)

Price: $98.00

Basically, my closet will be seeing more of the French Connection label very soon!

I love how tailored their fits are. Their dresses aren't S, M, or L.

They run with number sizes (0, 2, 4, etc.)
