Dress: Peacocks By design, Pearls: Primark, Flower pin: H&M, Socks: Asos, Butterfly Flats: Random boutique
Taking these photos on a lovely hot sunday afternoon in this pretty location, in this pretty dress made everything feel so romantic..and I just wanna say thank you so much to my other half Dave for always supporting my blog and no matter what the weather taking my photos for me..without him Magpie Girl wouldn't be half of what it is today..xo
Here is how the other lovely Take Ten ladies styled their dresses: so many good ideas of toher ways to wear it! Be sure to check them out: Jen, Mj, Ellie, Sabine, Sarah, Sherin Paula, Harriet and a special thank you to Susie for stepping in for this challenge as sadly Adele has decided to leave.
So what do you guys think? Who styled it the best in your opinion?





















You look absolutely beautiful - so so classy and ladylike. I love the locations in these photos too! Your butterfly flats are delightful too.
I love your outfit! This is what i really like, vintage-dreamy look! you look great!
This colour looks fab on you. Great retro look x
Isn't it funny that you all seemed quite wary of this one and you all look absolutely stunning in it? It's something that doesn't need too much styling IMO, but I love all the different tweaks and accessories that you've all tried out with it.
That dress screams cuteness! Really like the way you styled it, as well as the ones in #1 and #5.
It's always handy to have a check list eh!!? :)
You look fantastic.
I have to say, I love the red frames of your glasses, they look amazing with your hair
I love the way you styled the dress! It makes me happy to see spring is flourishing everywhere:) hehe..

♥nice post.)) love your blog♥
I love the girly style of this dress, and although it isn't something that I would wear myself, I think it screams classic lady wear. Beautiful!
-vicki!
love the print on your dress
Adorable :) The dress looks great on you and I love how you styled it!
Must agree with all of the above, totally love the way you've styled this. If I'd seen it on a hanger, wouldn't have thought it could look this lovely! I think ankle socks make everything ok these days :) Just stumbled across your blog now, so lovely. Also, I adore your hair! I was deliberating going that colour for so long, but didn't want to interfere with my natural colour, which is a lighter red than that. So yes, wonderful blog.

You look gorgeous! Love the dress and the shoe/sock combo! Also, you have my dream hair :o)
