Flower Girl Dresses from Monsoon

Monsoon have always been a great shop for occasion wear, and they stock the sweetest most feminine clothing for little girls. Including a great selection of girls party wear which would be perfect for flower girls or younger bridesmaids. They're not cheap, but theres a sale going on right now with many lines reduced including some of the items above. I went for the Neva dress (far left) in ivory for my two little fairies, and saw some fabulously vintage style flapper dresses such as the aptly named Vintage dress above.

My only gripe with Monsoon, as with many UK stores operating here in the republic of Ireland, is the price difference from Sterling to Euro. You'll see that on the website the Neva dress is £55, in store in the ROI it's €85 which is a massive difference even when you factor in variables such as exchange rate, and Tax. I can only assume their shipping costs must be the most expensive in Europe to account for the rest of the markup... that or their raking in a huge margin from the dosile Irish public. My advice would be to either make a trip up to Belfast or have a friend buy them in the UK and bring them with them next trip home, you'll still save mre than buying it on the UK website as their delivery to the ROI is pretty steep at £7.95.
