There's nothing quite like finally finding a stylish summer dress.
But one mum got more than she bargained for when her floral dress turned out to resemble something totally different.
She was left in hysterics when the dress she'd ordered arrived 'looking like a granny nighty decorated with vaginas' - unique.
Jenni Rock fell in love with the £34.99 garment after seeing it on social media and immediately ordered it.
The midi dress was advertised as sporting a 'unique design' that's 'sure to turn heads' - and it certainly lived up to the hype when it landed on her doormat three weeks later.

After unwrapping the dress, Jenni realised the design wasn't floral after all, but was described by her horrified husband as having vaginas all over it.
Thankfully, they both saw the funny side and were left crying with laughter at the epic online shopping fail.
Jenni, from Brackley, Northamptonshire, said: "On the website it was kind of like a floaty, tiered dress. I thought it was a flowery pattern. I thought it looked nice, summery, floaty and cool for the summer.
"When it arrived, it looked really weird. The top was supposed to be a bit fitted and it would tier out from there but it's not like that at all. It's just like a nanny's nightie.
"I am a granny so it's like my first granny nightie. As soon as I saw the pattern I thought 'oh my god, I hate that'.
"My husband and I were crying with laughter because it was just hideous. It looks completely different, it looks like a hospital gown.
"It was the style first of all, he said 'you can send that straight back' and then he said 'what is that on it? It looks like vaginas. Why would you make a nighty with vaginas all over it?'
"I was laughing and saying 'I'm sure mine [vagina] doesn't look like that'.
"I asked him if I should wear it with a belt and he said 'absolutely not' and I needed to send it back. He was shocked at the price."
Jenni has said she'll be 'more wary' whilst online shopping in the future, and her floral dress has been described by social media users as looking like 'vaginas encased in intestines' after she shared the fail online.
Jenni wrote: "I like online shopping. Today I've had a funny but not-so-funny experience with what I ordered and what I got from an online company.
"My husband found it highly amusing as the pattern in his words 'looks like lots of vaginas, why would you make a nightie with vaginas all over it' (PS I don't think mine [vagina] looks like this). Not the pretty floaty dress I was expecting.
"Notes to self, read the reviews before ordering, if it seems a bargain that's because it's probably c*** and not like the picture."
One commenter said: "That’s so cheered me up lol. They definitely haven’t sent the same dress.
"The dress in the picture tucks in under the bust area, yours just goes straight down. As for the design 'vaginas', no words needed."
Jenni said: "Most of them have similar experiences of buying stuff online, you think it's going to look a certain way and it looks completely different and you wonder how they get away with it."
Jennie has requested a refund from the online retailer but says she's been told she could keep the dress and they'd give her a 50% refund, which she declined.
The mum-of-three says they then offered her a full refund if she posted the dress to China where the company is based at her expense, but Jenni is currently trying to get a refund from PayPal.
Jenni said: "I've never shopped there before. I saw an advert for the dress when I was on social media and I'm a little bit wary of going through links so I checked the site and looked for it on my normal browser.
"I did try to see if I could report a place like that but there wasn't an option. I bought it through PayPal so I'm trying to get it back through them.
"I tried through the actual company and they said I could keep the dress and they'd refund me 50%.
"I said 'that's not acceptable' then they offered me 75%. I told them I wanted a full refund then they said I could return it to China at my expense.
"I didn't know it was coming from China. Part of me thinks I should have looked at the reviews because people do mention the return process on there.
"I won't be ordering from them again and I'll definitely be more wary shopping online."
The Berkshire Fashion Outlet has been contacted for comment.
