Quinntessentially Pretty

I love Quinn's clothes. Her wardrobe is probably my favourite, after Emma's that is. And I just wish Lou could get her out of that infernal cheerleader's uniform so that we'd have more pretty clothes to admire. But as that seems to be a long way off I thought I'd just look for some Quinn inspired dresses instead.


One of my favourite Quinn dresses is the lovely Juicy Couture eyelet shift that Quinn wore with a yellow belt to sell cupcakes.
 I love the pleats and the slight puff sleeves and I just love that she wore white to sell cupcakes with highly coloured frosting. Anyway here are some more eyelet options:
 
This is a Giambattista Valli dress and it's very pretty with its bow and delicately coloured underlayer and appropriately demure for Quinn - it's also $2,965, which I think puts it out of Quinn's price range. I thought I'd start high with the prices because it makes Quinn's Juicy dress seem like a bargain plus I think it's nice to know that as unattainable as some of the fashion on Glee seems, there are almost certainly clothes they can't afford too. If you do happen to have this sort of money to spend on a dress that's great but if you don't, just keep reading they will get cheaper, I promise.

At almost a third of the price we have this eyelet dress, with very interesting waist detail, from Moschino Cheap and Chic. It's $895.
Coming down in price again we have this Marc by Marc Jacobs pearl effie eyelet dress for $325
For $365 you could have this Isabel Marant dress with short sleeves and scalloped hem.
At only $123 this Nanette Lepore Strawberry fields dress is a bargain from bluefly.com

I think Quinn would really like this Nanette Lepore "I adore you" dress too. I like the white edging and contrasting panel down the front, setting off the cream broderie anglaise. It could be yours for £90 from vanmildert.com

A lot more affordable but no less sweet is the elsa lace shirt dress ($44.50) from delias.com
There's also this vintage eyelet dress with pintucked bodice ($44.50 from delias.com)
Very similar but with an eyelet border hem and tie sash is the nadine eyelet dress ($44.50 delias.com)
This pretty eyelet 'garden party' dress with spaghetti straps is only $19.99 from meetmark.com. I love the unusual eyelet pattern
And this 'heidi' eyelet dress is only $19.99 from alloy.com

See there's lots of Quinntessential prettiness out there - even if it's not to be seen on Quinn.
