too late

Dress: ASOS. Shoes: Jessica Simpson. Clutch: Random NY shop on 34th st. Gold pendant: Vintage. Rings: Gift, YSL, Fashionology
***
Thought I'd show you the dress I almost used for the ASOS Round 1 Stylist comp (Round 2 is coming up soon. Votes are still being taken for Round 1 here. I think you have to 'like' the ASOS facebook page first).
***
The giant sleeves. The floor skim length. The blanket-like material. Love. Love. Love...
