OOTD: “Little Miss Sunshine”

July 26, 2011

Recently I was lucky enough to have a representative from the plus-size boutique, Vikki Vi® , to contact me regarding their brand. Vikki Vi® was one of the headlining presenters at this years “Full Figured Fashion Week”. The company has been in business for more than 20 years, and have an e-commerce website called plusbydesign.com. This past February Vikki Vi® opened up a boutique in Woodland Hills, California. They carry their own line of clothing as well as designer labels such as Donna Morgan who I’m wearing today.

I chose this dress as my review piece because of the 60’s mod-look to it. I’ve always liked the “I Love Lucy” styled A-line dresses. The bright yellow color was my second reason for deciding on this piece. I don’t own much yellow and wanted to keep up with the popular color-blocking trend so I figured I’d throw in some green and fuchsia as well. This sleeveless cotton jacquard dress with back zipper features a notched squareneck, an inset waist and pleated A-line skirt. By this being a more tailor made dress, you may want to order one size down. I have discovered that with higher-end designer labels, the quality and material are a lot more exquisite so the items may run a little full. The dress is fully lined and that was great for keeping it not so “see thru” when I walked in the sun. I personally adore any item with pockets and this dress has them on both sides. That’s perfect for keeping your pocket mirror close by to keep admiring how good you look in this dress!
