Yesterday I had the absolute pleasure of heading along to 'The Belle of the Ball' Boutique, based in Falkirk which is only a short drive from me to begin my first review! I've been so excited about this all week! I was met by the lovely and extremely helpful owner Lisa who made myself and my mum (also photographer for the day) feel right at home! 

Now who doesn't want to spend their day playing dress up?

I got to test drive some of the beautiful stock draping the walls! Being the only stockist of Primavera in Scotland, I had the privilege of getting to wear and snap some of the beautiful dresses. The purple sequins dress above is a Primavera number and it was absolutely beautiful on! I adored the train on the dress and would be a great investment for a ball or prom if you really want something to stand out! The dress stocks only one of each special occasion dress so if you want it I would be quick on the up-take! I think this is such a unique touch to the store as it means you'll never need to worry about turning up at an event in the same gown! (Every girls nightmare!!)

The Belle of the Ball stocks a wide variety of labels from AX Paris, La Femme to Sticks and Stones and Papparazzi both by Mori Lee. There really is something for everyone! From floor length to shorter styles the price tags can be anything from £15 up.


Another trait the store has just recently began is a 'Pre-L<3ved' section where you can sell your own dresses via the store, as long as it is two years old or less and is obviously in great condition! So if you have any gowns gathering dust and cobwebs in the back of your closets be sure to take them down here and get more information on this.

All of the dresses above are just some of the items I went mad over! I was literally like a dog with two tails and could have spent the rest of the day trying on everything else, however, I felt that I had enough material to satisfy all you lovely followers! Plus, I honestly couldn't handle any more beautiful, sparkly gowns! I mean, have you seen the gorgeous floor length black, sequin number?! Isn't it amazing!



I also want to say how beautiful the actual boutique is. Anyone who knows me understands how much I hate racking through clothes rails and messy stores! I like to be able to see where clothes are and other sizes available - even in sale racks! The store, as you can see from pictures above, is immaculately laid out and the changing rooms are very Hollywood-esque with the gorgeous light up mirrors - really great extra touch! You are sure to feel like a movie star here!

Myself and the lovely owner Lisa

I would highly recommend this boutique to anyone looking for something that is extra special - You are sure to find something that will tickle your style buds! I had a fabulous afternoon with Lisa at the store and shall hopefully be heading back soon to top up my wardrobe must-haves!
