Silk Wraps Review

                 

I recently discovered a new favourite type of dress that I had to share with everybody! This type being silk wrap dresses! This particular style is perfect for a special occasion, if you want to get dressed up. I wore my champagne silk dress to a friends 21st recently and the burgundy silk dress for an 18th birthday. The champagne dress looked great on and was a lovely material with plenty of elastic in, however I did find the fitting around the bust area a little too small for me. Apart from this though it fitted very well. The champagne dress was a little longer in length than the burgundy dress which I liked too, as I was wearing it to go for a meal and drinks. I styled the dress with, nude suede heels, my moschino pink bag and a leather jacket. I also wore my lullabellz hair extensions with this look, keeping my own hair in soft curls too.


The burgundy dress was shorter in length and I found that although it was also a size 8, it fit like a glove, perfect everywhere. As this dress was shorter I styled it with shorter court heels and again my pink moschino bag. I decided to ditch my extensions for this look and went for tight pencil curls instead.

The Little Red Dress



So recently I've purchased a couple of little red dresses, one of which I wore just last weekend for cocktails. I had to write a blog about it as I absolutely fell in love with this particular dress. The dress I wore is from an online boutique called Oh Polly, I bought a few things from there recently and loved the quality of them! Likewise, this little red dress failed to disappoint. The material was a gorgeous thick bandage style so therefore fit really well. I purchased a size extra small and it fit perfectly as the dress also had some stretch in it.



I teamed my dress with nude patent leather and suede court heels and a nude clutch. I try to keep my accessories neutral when I'm wearing such a bright colour like this. I kept jewelery to a minimal too as I thought the dress was a statement enough itself.

Dungarees - My New Go To




I thought I'd do a blog post about Dungarees as lately I've been living in them and I am absolutely loving them! They're my new go to, they go with so many things and they can be dressed up or down - perfect for day and night. I recently styled my dungarees casually, by teaming them with a white long sleeved crop Tee which I purchased from Pretty Little Thing. I also wore my gold and white Adidas superstars as they went well with the Tee and they're the comfiest shoes I own which is a plus. I kept my jewellery minimal with just my silver Olivia Burton watch.

Later, in the week I decided to dress my dungarees up for a date night with the girls. I wore a bralet I got from River Island a couple of months ago and black strappy heels and my black Moschino quilted bag. I also wore gold hoops and my gold Michael Kors watch and bracelet to add a bit more glam to my outfit.


The Dungarees are from an online website I've only just started using - Miss Pap. They have quite a bit of stretch in the fabric but are still tight fitting so are quite figure flattering. I'll definitely be purchasing them in different colours very soon!
