This Roman Spot dress is pure Classic!

We had a few days away in the sun recently and I was limited to a carryon - when I saw this Roman spot dress I knew it was a classic. Although it's a jersey fabric and fully lined it feels like chiffon so light as a feather to pack!

I don't feel comfortable in florals but spots or stripes are just up my street and navy and white is always timeless!

Roman fit 'real women'

The beauty of the Roman range is that they are designed to fit 'real women' and therefore forgiving and flattering to a less than perfect figure. 

I like an easy-to-wear pull-on style and, if it has just a tiny cap sleeve, it covers just enough of the upper arm to be comfortablewithout any feeling of restriction. The shoulder width that's created balances the rest of the figure.

A twisted detail always enhances the waistline and hides the tummy area to produce an overall slimmer silhouette. 

Roman styles sell out quickly and new styles are constantly added. So if you can't locate this item or if it's not a shape that appeals to you, take a look at the wide range of crisp looking navy and white spot dresses. 

Cocktail time too! 

This Roman classic spot dress works easily with sandals for holidays but teamed with smarter accessories it would look a treat at a Summer wedding or a dressy occasion. 

Although a floral fabric would probably limit it to the Summer months, the classic navy and white will certainly continue to serve me for dinner dates through to the Winter.

Worn with a neat bolero and heels it would actually take you into social occasions later in the year! 

NB I was not gifted this dress, I bought it for my holiday.
