Holly Willoughby stuns on ITV's This Morning in £38 dress - where to buy her outfit - Express Posted: 11 Jun 2019 03:03 AM PDT On today's edition of ITV's This Morning Holly Willoughby looked stunning in a black floral dress.

Holly's choice today of a floral dress is a classic go to look for the presenter. She is a great fan of a printed dress, often wearing animal or check print numbers for presenting This Morning. Recently Holly has been wearing a number of floral dresses as the weather has gotten warmer. Whilst her dress today is an affordable £38, last week the mum-of-three wore far pricier options. At the end of last week Holly opted for a £475 Beulah London floral dress as well as a Anna Mason £725 floral dress earlier in the week. Holly often takes to Instagram to share moments of her family life with her 5.6 million followers. Yesterday evening she shared a sweet picture of her cat nestled under an umbrella. She captioned the picture: "This dark and dismal weather calls for den building... Bluebell making herself right at home…" Many of her followers were quick to comment on the bad luck associated with opening an umbrella indoors. Notoriously private about her family, the mum-of-three has been opening up recently and sharing more personal pictures. On yesterday's edition of This Morning, despite the dismal weather, Holly looked bright and colourful in a lavender outfit. Holly wore a £49.99 lilac tweed pencil skirt from Spanish high street favourite Zara. She paired the skirt with a cashmere jumper from Pure Collection that is currently on sale for £90 in a variety of colours. Holly is a firm favourite of the brand's cashmere collection and often wears their jumpers when presenting This Morning. Holly will be back tomorrow alongside Phillip Schofield to present the award winning ITV show.

Mother-of-the-groom slammed for buying a £3k bespoke wedding dress for her son’s big day - The Sun Posted: 11 Jun 2019 07:13 AM PDT A MOTHER-of-the-groom has sparked outrage by picking out a bridal gown to wear to her son's wedding. Self-confessed 'controlling' mum Lydia revealed she had been planning her son's wedding for six months. The mum-of-four wasn't content with being second to the mother-of-the-groom, so wanted to make sure she stood out. Lydia decided to let her dress do the talking, so she headed to Ian Stuart's London Boutique. She said: "I am quite controlling and have been planning my only son's wedding for around six months. "It will be a traditional Greek wedding with more than 200 guests. "My son has his criteria for how he'd like me to look, and I have mine. "The mother of the groom tends to have a secondary role to the mother of the bride but I want something with the wow factor for the day." Featuring on Channel 4's The Posh Frock Shop, the clip has resurfaced after being shown last year, and people are still mad over Lydia's dress choice. Attending the boutique with her two daughters, Lydia rejected all of Ian's occasion wear dresses. She tried on two grey dresses which she felt didn't quite hit the mark. So Lydia headed over to the bridal section, and immediately fell in love with a floor-length one-shouldered gown. The staggering £2,895 bespoke dress frock features lace detailing and a frilly shoulder strap. Figures from The Money Advice Service revealed the average cost of a wedding is £27,161. And the stats, published last year, indicated the average cost of a wedding dress was £1,385 – meaning Lydia was splashing more than double that on her frock. But even owner Ian thought she may have gone too far. He said: "She's going down the very sexy route, almost the 'I'm more important than the bride' route. "What kind of mother would think it is appropriate to wear a wedding dress for themselves to their son's wedding." He advised her at least get the dress in grey, rather than white, for fear over upstaging the bride. And when Ian asked her what her son would think when he saw the dress, Lydia admitted he would probably say she's gone 'over the top'. Despite that, Lydia decided to buy it anyway, saying: "It is not the typical mother of the groom dress, but I love it and I'm having it!" Expressing their horror online, one person commented on Facebook: "It truly creeps me out when MOGs do this." Another person wrote: "If it were me, I'd make sure every guest had a glass of red wine or fruit punch in hand. "How sad it would be if a friend accidentally spilled some!" A third wrote: "Why are MOGs like this!! I'm scared to get married." Someone else added: "Not only is this incredibly rude to the bride but that dress is hideous." And someone else simple wrote "poor bride." This person said: "I would beat my future mother in law if she play with me like this." While somebody else thought: "Anyone else think it's weird that she'd WANT to wear a wedding dress to her SON'S wedding? "Like, obsessive mother to the extreme." Meanwhile this guest's £165 silky blue gown was branded 'cheap lingerie'. And this cougar bride desperately tried to please her toyboy fiance who demanded a white wedding with all the trimmings. Plus this bride's 'bodysuit' for her beachfront wedding was slammed as tacky. |
This Magical, Affordable Maxi Dress Will Make You Want to Twirl - Slate Posted: 11 Jun 2019 05:00 AM PDT The Milumia Women's Button-Up Split Floral Print Flowy Party Maxi Dress reads like a corny mouthful, a parody of overdescriptive yet somehow sterile ad speak. The women modeling the dozen-plus patterns in which the Milumia maxi is available seem to be going for a look between "Blue Steel" and European milkmaid, ending up somewhere in the region of constipated iciness. It's sold on Amazon, which is something of a … mixed bag when it comes to the quality of clothing, and the reviews range from glowing endorsements like "[This dress] made want to frolic in a meadow" to screeds against the quality of material used and its inability to be washed—arguably a requirement for clothing. And yet, here I am to extoll the virtues of a dress that, as soon as it arrived on my doorstep, became an instant summer staple. The Amazon Dress, as I've taken to calling it, is so beautifully versatile that not only have I taken it on almost every trip I've taken since buying it, but I've ordered another and have my eye on acquiring a third. I was a senior at Northwestern counting down the weeks leading up to graduation when I first saw the Milumia dress on a BuzzFeed roundup of "maxi dresses you can get on Amazon that you'll actually want to wear." The issue of money—how much I needed and how much I didn't have—was a permanent, worrying presence. I had a fellowship lined up in New York with no money to move there. I was staring down a year of trying to scrape by in one of the most expensive cities in the world while working a job that paid a hair under $15 an hour. I had no savings to pay for the myriad costs that come with the privilege of walking past piles of garbage and sitting next to pole-dancing rats on the train. My family still hadn't finished paying tuition for my last quarter of school, and so I wouldn't be receiving my diploma at the journalism school's graduation ceremony—one of three that I had to attend, and none of which I had a dress for. All that is to say that when I saw this cornily marketed dress with mixed reviews, I was both desperate and wholeheartedly convinced that anything would be better than being surrounded by my wealthy classmates while wearing the same dress I graduated high school in. Reader, I completed the purchase. Because it wasn't eligible for free two-day shipping, there was plenty of time between when I placed the order and when I received the Amazon Dress. Plenty of time for me to experience that intimately familiar regret and trepidation that comes after purchasing clothes online from a new store. But those feelings turned out to be entirely unnecessary. As soon as I shook the Amazon Dress out of its packaging, I knew I would end up buying it in a pattern different from the red-and-white floral one I had chosen. Not because I didn't like it, but because for a dress so inexpensive, it was truly stunning. The material is thin—breezy but not insubstantial—and the wide skirt drapes elegantly when still. In movement, it does actually make you want to frolic in a meadow like a Disney princess. It's impossible not to twirl in it, just to see the skirt flare out. The Milumia maxi is a chameleon, blending in perfectly to any situation from work to parties to the beach, and it's also one of those items that receives boundless compliments in whatever scenario you chose to wear it to. Friends and co-workers whom I've inducted into the Order of the Dress have similarly glowing reviews, lauding its ability both to work as a fancy swimsuit cover-up and to gracefully tolerate amateur alterations like trimming the hem if it's too long. (I'm 5-foot-4, and the medium is just long enough to work with both heels and sneakers.) Though the Milumia dress did shrink the tiniest bit when I first put it through the laundry, I fully chalk that up to the fact that I put it in a laundromat dryer instead of allowing it to air dry. Otherwise, it washes like a champ, and I've had plenty of opportunities to test that ability out. For example: I happened to be wearing the Amazon Dress when I, rather stupidly, wore platform sandals to a park and tripped badly enough to require eight stitches on my knee. Even while I was bleeding, a passerby who helped me limp my way to a bench commented on how beautiful the dress was. But importantly, the Amazon Dress ended up being the perfect thing to accidentally maim myself in, because the split front meant I didn't have to disrobe for the X-ray or suturing process. I eventually healed, and as for the maxi, after a wash, no one was the wiser. If you need a dress this summer that can handle you at your worst while making you look your best, then this one might be worth taking for a spin.
