SS13 Rihanna For River Island Overall Maxi!

Monday 15 July 2013

Tomorrow is the big day, I'll be waking up in the early hours of the morning and flying to Barbados! Before I go, I have just enough time to share my final Rihanna for River Island outfit. If you're a regular blog reader, you'll know I'm obsessed with maxi dresses so it'll come as no surprise that I opted for this gorgeous black overall dress.

Choosing the colour was not an easy task. It's also available in an awesome green tie-dye print and a lovely black/white floral. Initially I was drawn to the tie-dye one, but in the end I decided that the black was more classic. On the hanger, this sheer overall maxi dress (Was £60 Now £30) doesn't look like much but I knew it would be awesome on. I really love how much material there is! Since it's sheer, I wore it with a simple black slip underneath.

It goes perfectly with my cut-out boots (Was £95 Now £50) and this floppy hat. I added a little studded Topshop belt and a spiked bracelet to make it a little more grungey. I'd recommend sizing down if you're small chested like me, this is actually the 6!

I'm now lusting over the other colours, I think the tie-dye version would've been perfect for running on a beach in Barbados...Oh well, this one is still ideal for wearing on an evening due to the material. Yum.

So this is goodbye for a week! I've scheduled a few other posts (including a Glastonbury/festival survival guide) and I'll be constantly updating our Instagram and Facebook pages while I'm away. Please stay in touch, expect lots of beach/cocktail/hotel snaps.
