I've decided to mix things up a little bit this week and focus on one of my favourite vintage repro brands. To be honest, one of their dresses is always going to be on my wishlist of some kind, so I thought why not focus completely on their dresses this week?
I love this brand for a number of reasons; one being that they are completely body positive, catering to ladies of many different sizes and I know many plus sized women who rave about their Plus Size range. Secondly, the variety you get with Voodoo Vixen in terms of ranges of styles of dresses, patterns and the like, is incredible! I so found it hard to pick just 6 dresses for my wishlist.
1) Nikki dress - £49.99
So I've been absolutely adoring this dress for a some time now. I've yet to own a turquoise dress in my wardrobe (apart from my darling Birdie dress from Pinup Couture which I had to sell *cries*) so this would make an interesting change for me; likewise, the rhombi pattern is also different for me which I love and it sort of, in a subtle way, reminds me of Pinup Girl Clothing's Harlequin prints.

2) Chelsea dress - £42.99
Ahhh gosh, I'm so in love with everything about this dress! Okay so firstly, I just LOVE pink gingham, it's so summery and cute; I want to go to the park and eat picnics in this dress. I've wanted it for ages but have never bought it due to saving. Another aspect of this dress I like is the neck; a jewel neckline with a decorative bow tie of the side really makes me think of the Pink Ladies in Grease. I love a dress that comes with a belt too because being pulled in at the waist is an important aspect of a dress for me.

3) Selena dress - £49.99
This taffeta dress comes with a gorgeous pastel green background - and as you might know, I'm a sucker for pastel colours - and black polka dots. Personally, I find this dress to be a little more fancy so it's always nice to have one of those for special occasions. I don't have many straight fitting dresses, so again, I like to change things up and go for a different style.

4) Angie dress - £30.99
I spotted this dress in a vintage reproduction shop in Brighton about 3 weeks ago and I instantly fell in love. As a girl who is totally in love with floral patterns, especially those that are pastel coloured and also resemble Cath Kidston's signature prints, this has instantly become my favourite and most lusted after VV dress. Amazingly, it's at a bargain price of £30.99 and one I will be going to back to, perhaps on payday. I'm particularly a fan of the rusched waist and I know this is the perfect summer dress for me! *get in my closet NOW* I'm gutted this is sold out in my size on the Voodoo Vixen website, but I'm sure a little search on the web will turn something up.

I've mentioned this a million times in my previous blog posts but I just adore kitsch prints; Voodoo Vixen are amazing for these and they've really hit the nail on the head with this dress. I love the colour and the black edge and belt finishes the dress off so neatly but the other appealing part to this dress for me is the neck. The martini glasses are just so cute!
6) Prarie dress - £49.99
Ahh the colours on this dress are just so amazing! I imagine you'd catch a lot of peoples eyes in this and for good reasons. The cat print is really adorable and I find the red incredibly bold. However, I particularly love the style of this dress the most. The fold down collar is super striking and the 3 1/4 length sleeves are perfect as I don't always feel comfortable with having my arms out. I really do love these styles of dresses and combined with this print, I know Voodoo Vixen are on to a winner with this one.

I loveee #2 & #5! I actually just ordered my first Voodoo Vixen piece of clothing! I orders the 1950's Leona dress. The print is SO darn cute, and I can't wait for it to arrive! :)
