Inspired by season seven winner Millie Court's yellow cut-out dress, I went on the hunt for the bright hue but found when looking for something quite specific, in this case 'size 8 tight yellow dress', the options were limited. But, with perseverance, I did manage to find one in the end.
I got into a bidding war on this one and ended up with a 20 per cent discount off the original listing price. Even better! This dress was listed as marked and had images to prove it on the site, but I was still surprised to see just how large the mark was on the front of the dress – forever an optimist. Reading the descriptions and studying the images is definitely important when buying preloved items.
Costing £6, the dress was preworn from Boohoo, and I paired it with Kurt Geiger snake-print wedges costing £10. This look felt peak "Love Island", I just needed a white-wine glass to accessorize!
