Net-a-porter shopping spree

I know it's been a little while since I last posted and that's because I went on a multi-day, many hours long shopping spree of net-a-porter. Why? Well, first of all because it's amazing and second of all so I could pass my favourites on to you. However, I ended up picking 123 items so I've done a bit of weeding, but I'm still going to have to spread things out over a few posts/days. So, for my first section, I've chosen: dresses! I know there's a lot but I promise I've trimmed it by a half at least!
I adore this Alberta Ferretti dress. I love the style, love the colour and I bet it would look amazing on. Definately one of my very top picks!

I'm crazy over this Chloe dress. I love the yellow and I think it look amazing layered over the black. Definately something I wish was in my closet.

I love the colours in this Herve Leger. The top is very interesting and, although it reminds me somewhat of bondage, I still like it a lot.
I think this Luella dress is adorable! I find it darkly romantic, yet totally fun at the same time. I really think it's quite lovely.
Speaking of fun, I completely love this Marc by Marc Jacobs dress as well. How could you not have fun wearing this dress out dancing or anywhere?
I couldn't resist adding this Marc by Marc Jacobs dress too. I'm a huge fan of the line and I also this this dress is amazing. I love the unevenness and the great shape.
This Matthew Williamson dress isn't the style I would normally pick but I couldn't help falling in love with it. The colour is great and the embellishment at the neck is simply wonderful!
Another favourite from Matthew Williamson, I love how pretty and femmine this dress is without looking silly.
I love how simple and classic this Micheal Kors dress is and the belt totally sets it off. Wonderful.
I love everything going on in this Moschino dress. It's so interesting and definately looks like pretty/military.
I adore all te ruffles and the bow on this black Moschino. Very lovely!
I love the colour and styling of this Nathan Jenden dress. I'm loving yellow lately and I think the black accents it well without making it look like a bumblebee. I would love to have this dress in my closet!
I love th poppy belt on this T-bags dress. The poppies remind me of Rememberance day, which is coming up, but the dress is beautiful in it's own right.
I'm not usually a big fan of shiney embellishment, but I can't help but love this dress from Temperly London. The colour's great and the sleevs are adorable.
Another Temperly London favourite, I absolutely love the texture in this dress. I think it keeps the dress looking interesting and not too pink.
For getting into the lace trend, this Thurley dress is my pick. I love the large flowers and I think they keep the dress from getting too frilly and hard to wear.
I love the pattern on this Vera Wang dress. I think I've loved purple since I was six and I used to wear my purple gymnastics shirt all the time. Only this is much more chic!
Last but not least, I've chosen this black Zac Posen dress. I know I've shown it before but I'm as in love with it now as I ever was. I honestly love everything about it. The length is great, the neck is amazing, everything is perfect. A grand finale!
I'd love to know what you think of my picks and add any of your own. And I promise the other posts aren't quite this long, but that's for sticking around until the end. (photos from net-a-porter).

I can get lost in dresses for hours! This year there are so many whimsical frocks for a girl to choose from. I love the red Temperely. (I think it was Temperely).
