Yasmina Greco – Heart of Haute Amanda Dress
Heart of Haute is one of my go-to brands for not only work appropriate Pinup clothing but for evening and day wear too. Today on the blog we are taking a closer look at the Amanda dress in the chic Phoebe Paisley pattern. The dress is named after Heart of Haute’s founder Miss Mandie Bee, and is inspired by classic vintage style. The Amanda dress features a round yoke collar, gathered bodice, and full swing skirt.
This year it felt like retailers really didn’t get into the Valentines Day spirit. I didn’t see very many outfits with hearts or lips and very few red or pink dresses. Also, being a curvy girl I found the selection of Valentines Day outfit sizing to be on the smaller side this year and although I waited till it was nearly too late in the hopes that my go-to brands would come out with something, they didn’t, so, I decided I’d reach into my fabulous wardrobe and put my own Valentine inspired outfit together.

Fall is just around the corner and that means Halloween is not far behind. Not only can get Halloween ready but you can also get your wardrobe ready for Fall. If you lovely fun novelty prints as much as I do then you need this Artisan Skirt – Halloween Cat skirt from Heart of Haute!! A bright orange color with fabulously furry black kitty cats and jack-o-lanterns decorate the skirt and you can’t help but get excited for Halloween. The skirt is available in sizes XS-3X as Heart of Haute does their very best to be an inclusive size brand. I am wearing the skirt in my standard 2X and the fit is so perfect and comfy!! The skirt comes with nice wide waistband too so you can easily not wear a belt for added comfort. Zips up the back. Because the skirt is cotton I did find the waist loosened with wearing making it even more comfortable. The nice full skirt gives it great shape too.
