    We adore this. While we love Holly Willoughby’s latest look, we’re not exactly on board with the price, just under the €250 mark FYI. Her latest look is a Whistles piece, the Salome Lenno Print Dress to be precise about it, and it’s priced at €245. It’s selling quick but there are some sizes left online […]
