My Pearl Of The Day: Ici Fashion Printed Mini


  I know what you're thinking: where on earth did Kendra get that beautiful dress? I must know now!   Ha. Ha. You my lovely readers are in luck today because I'm nice enough to tell you where I got this beautiful-with-a-dash of-sexy-little dress! Drumroll....... It came from Ici Fashion of course!

  I know you guys ain't thinking I'm lame for that paragraph above so I'm going to be nice enough to tell you more you lucky son of a guns you! 

  No more teasing. The dress here is the Long Sleeved Printed Mini from Ici Fashion. The print is just my kind of print: super bold and fiesty! I love the mix of cheetah and... swirly blue & white stuff? 


Here is a good photo showing the sleeve cut-out. The dress is actually not as short as it appears on me. It just managed to get bunched up in this photo.

  Just like the Coral Bandage Dress I posted about yesterday (which I'm sure you read since you're all so darn loyal!) the Long Sleeved Printed Mini also has a lot to offer. It's bold and spicy,  a little sexy, but appropriate to wear anywhere. It is long sleeved which makes it great for cold weather. I love my dresses, but it's not always easy to wear every one of them during cold months. This little feller is warm enough and on the super cold nights, I pair it with black leggings and I'm good! Despite what you may think, a good pair of leggings can actually be pretty darn warm! The arms have a cut out, exposing parts of the arm. A very classy way to add a little sexy! During the cold months, a sweater will be enough to keep you warm... unless you live in Antartica. This can be paired with a super warm long black jacket, leggings/tights and some heeled warm boots for the extra cold areas. 

  


  The Long Sleeved Printed Mini is made of 92% polyester 8%spandex. This means it has quite a bit of stretch. I'm 93 pounds and the size small was perfect. It fit in all the right places. I've had no problems with the sizing with Ici Fashion's items. The sizing seems to be right on. Since the material is so stretchy, it allows you to pull the dress down longer over your legs for more coverage or it can be slightly "bunched up" to shorten. I'm 5"2 and the small falls exactly where it should for my size. Most dressses are way to long for my short size or either they are WAY too short making them work as a top only. This one is just right. I can bend over freely without my hiney shining! Lol. I don't have any problems moving around, getting in and out of the car,etc. I don't feel like I'm going to expose myself with one single move. It's easy to get around in, comfortable and adorable! 



The Long Sleeved Printed Mini measures 31 inches long. The back has a sexy little oval cut out (see photo above) which measures about 5 inches at the wides part which is the middle of the oval. The middle area of the dress measures 12" wide, 13" wide at hips and  14" wide at the thighs. The chest measures about 15" wide. Keep in mind this was measured with the dress lying on the bed, not on my body! It has a lot of stretch so it will accomadate up to a medium. I normally wear a size small and the dress wasn't tight or uncomfortable, but it wasn't baggy at all. Just the perfect size. It's not clingy, but it appears to be slightly tight. That is just the material though. It's still quite comfortable and doesn't glue to my stomach. A huge plus. 




  
  As you can see in the photo above and the others below, the dress has black chunks of stripes with blues scattered about and the cheetah looking print starts at the waist. The way the lines of black kind of gather together under the bust and above the waist create a more slimming look instead of having wild print that highlights your middle. In my opinion, the way the print is, it draws the eyes up toward the chest rather than straight to your middle section. This is a plus,plus,plus! Funky and bold prints tend to be something a lot of people stray from because they often highlight all the wrong areas, but this has everything in the right place, only highlighting the parts you want like the chest, torso, arms, etc. I think it would work nicely for most all body shapes.

 My overall opinion of the Long Sleeved Mini Dress: I can't find words to describe it! I love, love, love it! A beautiful, sexy dress with lots of fiesty to it.  Fits great, stretchy material and it works well during cold and warmer weather. It's an easy dress. It doesn't require a lot of work or getting ready. Slip it on and you're good! The print and style is super fun and I LOVE the cut outs in the back and the arms! 

My overall opinion of Ici Fashion: Couldn't be more pleased! I love the items they have and the prices are more than fair. It's an affordable online shop with many stylish items. Ici Fashion is on my favorites bar and I don't add many! I actually only have 3 sites on my fav bar and one's a site I visit for my writing pieces and the other is my school site and the 3rd is Ici Fashion! See, you have to be real special to be on my fav bar! I absolutely adore the company and will be shopping there quite a bit. They have fast shipping and customer service is responsive and super kind. Did I mention I love their prices? 

I would absolutely send my friends and family to them... Already have! I also recommend you guys check them out yourselves, here
