Lena dress

Last week whilst I was down in London, my boyfriend surprised me with a bag full of treats from Monki as a gift for our 3 year anniversary. Inside was this amazing denim effect dress, which I absolutely LOVE! He did really well seeing as he's never shopped for clothes for me before and I'm an incredibly fussy buyer, much to the annoyance of him when he gets dragged around Manchester or London on my shopping trips!

The dress has this imitation denim feel, it's super stretchy and it's called the 'Lena' dress. At £20 it's a fabulous buy! I think it's perfect for these days coming up to summer, where the sun is out but there's still a chilly breeze about! It's not too heavy or rigid like real denim, it's elasticicity provides a lot of movement! I popped on a pair of Monki sunglasses and some boots which I picked up in the sale from Topshop in the Trafford Centre to complete the look with this dress and I've got to say this outfit feels best when accessories are kept to a minimum! 

If you don't live in London and are looking for a new brand to give a go, I'd definitely suggest trying Monki, online or via ASOS. The clothes are all well affordable, and good value for money too as well as being super stylish!
