Faith Swing Dress- Glamour Bunny

Add some glamour this December with a stunning dress from Glamour Bunny.  The Faith Swing Dress is flirty, glamorous and just simply beautiful.  It will be the stand out dress of the parties you attend!  This style hugs your curves and provides coverage, while still giving you a subtle sexy style.  I love the 1/2 sleeves with the collared v-neck.  It has pretty button details and of course, my favorite swing style skirt.  It is very full and provides plenty of room for a petticoat if you choose.  The length falls below the knee. The material does provide a little stretch and Glamour Bunny provides a sizing chart to make sure you get the best fit. It is available in XS-XXL. I highly recommend one of these styles this season!  You can also get the Faith Dress in a pencil style if that is your preference.  

Glamour Bunny has been making high quality, stunning clothing items since 2008.  They have really made it easy for women with hourglass figures to find great fitting clothes. They are designed in the UK and styles are available online and in some stores all over the world.   You will definitely turn heads wearing Glamour Bunny!  

I chose all red accessories with a clear bag to really show off this red theme outfit.  My earrings and bangles are from Bow and Crossbones.  They are the Snake Charmer and Sally Snake Charmer Bangles, paired with the Snake Charmer Carved Fakelite Earrings. The intricate details inside this collection are really cool! They can be found on bowandcrossbones.com. 

This stunning reproduction lucite bag is from Kookidelou.  She designs these bags and even lucite heels!  It's worth treating yourself for sure.  I have gotten so many compliments on my bag! Now, they are limited edition and only less than 100 remain. 

Every look must be complete with some amazing shoes.  You can find a heel for every occasion with Bettie Page Shoes.  These comfy 3" heels are easy to wear and they do look great!  They are the Jolie style and feature a suede and leather look mix with a pretty bow detail. I love the leopard bottoms on all of the Bettie Page Shoes! 

Enjoy the Christmas season with your family and friends and don't forget to reflect on the true meaning of the holiday. It's the most magical time of the year!  I wish you all the happiness, cheer and joy this time brings. I hope you can help someone in need or spend some time with someone who is alone.  You never know what a difference you can make with just a small gesture!

Are you as excited about Halloween as I am?  I just love this time of year when the weather cools down and the leaves change to their gorgeous colors.  It's so refreshing! I love creepy things and cute spooky things too.  Dressing for the season is so fun even though I love it all year!  This outfit has been a favorite this year for sure!  I will be wearing this a lot even when Halloween has passed.  

The Bobbie Jumper in Bats Darkest Night from Miss Fortune is such an awesome sweater.  I have gotten tons of compliments every time I wear it!  The bats in flight with the moon and the black background are just perfect!  You need this in your wardrobe.  The fit and comfort are excellent as well.  It does have a good amount of stretch, so you could size down if you want.  You can use the guide to determine what size will work. The Bats are also available in Blood Moon, which is a red jumper and equally as amazing!
