Oh My Love Gold Dip Hem Dress * / ASOS Snood / ASOS Wrap Belt / Topshop Knee High Boots / Balenciaga City
I seem to be collecting a lot of clothing & accessories that feel a bit superhero inspired recently. It’s no secret I’m a huge comic book nerd, so it’s no surprise that I’m just a little bit excited to see so many collections inspired by superheros this Autumn! This Oh My Love dress is my most recent addition. As soon as I saw the metallic gold foil & dipped back that feels a bit like a cape, I knew I needed to have it & I’ve been swooshing around in it since it arrived!
These Topshop boots are really old & I haven’t worn them for years now, but I just had to dig them out to really complete the whole super-heroine look! After rediscovering them I’m not really sure why they’ve been unworn for so long. I put them away one summer, knowing it would be too warm to wear them & it seems I just forgot about how beautiful they were. They are ridiculously comfortable & the leather is really thick, but buttery soft, giving them that perfect slouch when worn. I see them getting a lot more wear over the coming months to make up for the years in storage!

You’re really photogenic, Stephanie. My little girl has been doing plenty of home assignments on super hero. She’s currently obsessed with them so this dress is definitely a more glammed up and chic version of the costume.
Jamie says
Nothing wrong with super hero like garments, maybe they will give you super powers? ;)you look love.y in that dress, it’s a perfect pick for you. I’m surprised to see you Ina bit more color recently!
FAIIINT says
Thankyou! :) Yes, I’m trying my best to try out more of these ‘almost neutral’ colours like oxblood, gold, navy .etc I love my black, but since I brought the oxblood dress I’ve realized there are a lot of these type of colours that actually feel almost like wearing black (if that makes sense?!) that I’ve always dismissed as being too colourful for me! I think it might be the weather, they all feel so autumnal & just ‘right’ at the moment!
alicia says
I think this is the first time I’ve seen you in color since I’ve read your blog. Gold looks good on you!!
steph says
this dress is perfect on you.. love the colour too, it’s the perfect shade of ‘old gold’ that i really love too. and you hair is looking amazing here – if anything it’s making a case for me going back to dark hair again!
FAIIINT says
Yes, totally agree! I was worried when it arrived that it’d be really bright gold, but luckily it has this nice distressed gold finish which I think is just perfect!
Ah, thankyou! I think it’s finally getting to the perfect length & all the awkward layers are just about grown out too, it could do with a bit of a trim though! As for colour, would you believe that at one point I was practically peroxide blonde?! Hah! I’ll definitely be sticking to dark now, it suits me the best I think.

This dress makes you look like a Greek Godness, you look great. The boots are one of these treasures we have at home and someday we love them again. Amazing.

crystal says
when i worked at american apparel i got convinced that spandex gold miniskirts were a good idea haha. this is way more wearable and elegant, I like that your dress has a bit of a nice drape to it

Your dress is just amazing! I can see the superhero inspiration there, haha. It also reminded me of Hercules a little bit by the way it drapes! Also I’m so pleased to find a fellow comic book reader, I’m relatively new to it (which people immediately discredit me for I find), I’m a huge Marvel fan! xo
