ruffling up a few feathers...

Michelle from daisybutter commented on my previous post and kindly informed me that there was a Peacock dress currently in stock in Topshop... Well I had a scout about and here it is... The Peacock One Sleeve Dress... It was everything I expected and more, I love the sheer sleeve, the elasticated waist and not too dear price (£45)...  I'm thinking a thin black plait belt and some nice black pumps for the evening. 

Going on the theme of 'peacock' I found these other dresses and very reasonable prices... 

Left: Mina Peacock Feather Dress, I chose this dress as its quite casual, a dress to wear during the day with some thick tights, brogues, satchel bag and a khaki parka? The dress is from ASOS and currently has 61% of the original price (£22 at the mo!) 
Right: The second dress, Vero Moda Peacock Dress is obviously alot more glam and very flirty yet sophisticated, perfect for a few cocktails with the girls. I love the neck of this dress, it's something completely different, and the ruffles/layers are very cute. All of this and its black- a staple colour in my shoe wardrobe. The final thing attracting me to this dress is its nifty price- £15!! It's from Oli.co.uk, go check it out :) 

Have you seen any cute Peacock items anywhere? Do you own any Peacock pieces of Jewellery?

Oh, that dress from Topshop is nice but i'm totally drooling over the Vera Moda one. For the Topshop dress, do you think a black belt might get lost with the dress? I was thinking maybe grey?
