Session Number 112





I love dating days. It gives me an extra reason to doll up and to look my best - even if it means "being too loud". I am always abused by stares and finger-pointing, even when I am only wearing a simple black dress. And you can just imagine the kind of nasty comments I always get.
But I am so very lucky to have a supportive boyfriend who always encourages me to doll up and to look the prettiest I can be. He loves it when I choose clothes in his favorite colors and styles, he loves it when I feel comfortable in what I wear, he loves it when I am confident of my ensemble - and nothing else matters. Not even the dumbest and most hurting criticism on Instagram/ gossips behind my back.
Last week, on the pretext of work, we had a quiet lunch over tantalizing European cuisine and I just couldn't resist photos of me in this upcoming toga dress from Hollyhoque. It is feminine and so comfortable - perfect for a date and a night of dancing. The accompanying sash accentuates the waist, while the drapey kimono-like sleeve completes the sensuality in a somewhat mysterious way.
I can't say how else but it is really quite the perfect toga dress I've donned in a very long while.
