Showcasing three totally different key seems to be for the brand new season, Laura put Cat, Ben and the viewers to the take a look at along with her three developments; the denim skirt, the barn jacket, and the polka dot costume.
Cat and Ben had been suitably impressed by Laura’s sensible excessive road finds, but it surely was this Abercrombie & Fitch Polka Dot costume that had Cat duped – she mistook the £100 for a designer costume and actually, we are able to see why. It is attractive.
Laura had the Abercrombie & Fitch costume facet by facet with a designer model, the Self-Portrait Taffeta Corset Costume, priced at £475. Styling each comparable, the clothes had rather a lot in frequent. Each have comparable black and white polka dot designs, with cami-style straps, a midi hem and flared skirt.
For added cool, they each have a dipped hemline and structured bodice; the most important distinction is the Abercrombie & Fitch costume has a bubble hem, which I feel provides a component of caprice to it.

For those who’re questioning methods to fashion the clothes, take recommendation from This Morning.

Come winter, you can even layer over a skinny, light-weight roll neck and mountaineering boots. Put on to your summer season occasions, be it the races or a christening, or a summer season’s day down the pub. Versatility is its center identify.
