Back in November, there was a Kickstarter campaign for a new plus size brand, Poppy & Bloom. I chose this dress as my Kickstarter reward and was so happy to get it a couple weeks ago.
New brands are always tricky to try. You never know how the sizes will fit, what the fabric will be like, and what the quality is. I was really pleased with all 3 of these aspects of Poppy & Bloom:
Curtsey & Bow Dress in Black by Poppy & Bloom (I'm 5'10 and wearing the size 24)
Shrug from Lane Bryant, old (similar)
Shoes: Isaac Mizrahi for Target (super old, similar)
Old Navy Necklace, old (similar)
Earrings, old (similar)
bareMinerals Marvelous Moxie lipstick in “Light it Up”
The fit and flare style was perfection. The skirt was very full but in a good way, though if the wind caught it, it could really blow up! This will be a great dress in the summer as well sans shrug when it gets a little warmer. Plus, the print is really cute. I was worried it'd look a little too young, but it's really fun and you can't quite tell it's bows from far away. I look forward to trying more from Poppy & Bloom.
