Designer Crush: Amanda Uprichard

I was first introduced to the incredible designs of Amanda Uprichard by my dear friend Jaime. Jaime showed up wearing this excellent dress below (in aqua) and I knew that Amanda Uprichard would hold a special place in my heart from then on.

I am so lucky because we are close to the same size and she is an excellent sharer.

Jaime is also the lucky owner of this fabulous Amanda Uprichard Penny dress in cobalt.

Although it has to be said that she looks a hell of a lot cuter in it then this mannequin.

I am thinking I should take one for the team and add this darling Peplum Racer Back Dress to the collection in magenta.

All of her dresses are made of a 100% silk which can be tricky to clean (unless you have a wonderful dry cleaner), but feel oh so fabulous. I love her use of bright, bold colors and the simplicity of the dresses. They are definitely on the pricier side, but with careful garment care, they are sure to be pieces that you can keep in your closest regardless of the fashion trends of the seasons.
