Butter by Nadia

This summer I have so many parties, engagements, weddings, anniversaries, christenings, the list is endless. 
The very idea of having to buy a dress for each event is enough to have my credit card quivering in the corner. 
Thankfully, those of you who have been following me for a while will know that I have an Ace up my sleeve. 
One dress, you can wear a hundred different ways. 
It's from a range called Butter by Nadia. 
The dresses are made of the most sumptuous cotton jersey, which makes them ideal for traveling as you can just fling them into a bag without worrying about creases. 
Worried about being caught in the same dress at two different parties? 
Just pull the ol' switcheroo with the straps & voila! A whole new dress. 










You can choose just how demure or slinky you want to be and the empire line cut means it flatters all shapes & sizes.
I know lots of women who use them as bridesmaid dresses, so that everyone can find a style that suits them.
I found my royal blue Summer saviour at Stanwell's Boutique, but I also have one in silky black, which I wore to The Boodles Boxing Ball & a little navy cotton number which I wore in Harbour Island.


You can never have too much Butter!
They aren't cheap, but I'm a big believer in paying for quality. My others have lasted for years, so I know this beauty will do a lifetime of service.
If the idea of playing Transformers with your wardrobe tickles your pickle, have a look at the website.
I have my eye on the navy maxi version...
But if you can't find a colour you like, try here.

  12. Wow it really does look amazing in every style! I bet it's actually quite cost effective if you worked out how much the dress costs per the different ways of wearing it VS. buying 5 dresses.

    Rose, I'm an avid reader of your blog (I stumbled upon your Anti-Diet post after googling diet tips and have since lost 2kg in 2 weeks!!), but please please can you tell us how you style your hair? It's always gorgeous and full of volume, I'm very envious!

  48. They also sell two different types of the multi-way dress on the victoria's secret website. But I'm not sure if they ship out to the U.K. I live in the state's and they only have stores in the U.S and Canada. The dress is a lot cheaper at victoria's secret then the websites provided here. Here are the links for those looking for this dress at a more affordable price range:

    I have a question! I can only see one seam at the waist line. Doesn't the skirt part of the dress have any seams?
