Dinner With Friends

Prior to my departure and Christmas, I planned a dinner with friends to catch up since everyone has been so busy with work or school. Again, since I was traveling it was nice to reunite before the new year.

Love the decor of the restaurant: classy and chic!

Nice restaurant and great food!

Accessories: Michael Kors watch, Forever21 ring, Macys/Bar II bracelets

Currently blogging from Lagos, Nigeria--it is ridiculously warm. I am still trying to adjust to the 6 hours time difference. As I blog, it is currently 1am  3am here and I have to be up pretty early because I have a flight to the East coast to see family, friends, and for a wedding.

I was having second thoughts about this dress, but after some adjusting and convincing from my friend B and hubby, I decided to "work" it -- love Aqua clothes :)

With friends...

Outfit: Dress by Aqua; shoes: Christian Louboutins; Clutch: H&M

Hope everyone started their week off great! 

Are you ready for New Year? Any New Year's resolutions?

xoxo

Sequins and Lace

The party season is almost upon us once again and everyone is faced with the age old questions of ‘What shall I wear?’, ‘How many dresses can I afford?’, ‘How can I stand out?’ and most importantly of all ‘Do I have the time to shop for these?’ The answer to the majority of these questions is very simple; go to www.very.co.uk where you can browse the latest fashions by top designers from the comfort of your own home at a time to suit you.

This season is looking to be full of glitz and glamour, with many labels focusing upon sequins and lace in their seasonal offerings. Caprice’s ranges ‘By Caprice’ and ‘Glam By Caprice’ both have a heavy focus on these with stunning dresses such as a sequin bustier maxi dress, as maxi dresses continue in their seemingly ever-lasting appeal, having transformed themselves into autumn’s must have dress. Adding to this is Love Label with a pleat sequin trim maxi dress, a cowl neck dress from South with a subtle sparkle to the fabric and a Morning Stars Sequin Dress from French Connection. These seasonal collections are marking this out as the year of the sparkle with many more brands following this trend.

A season like this is a girls dream when it comes to accessorising; the more sparkly and shiny, the better! Accessorise these eye-catching looks with chain and bead necklaces or bracelets; add to the shimmer with a diamante headband or a pearl and diamante flower ring. Complete the look with anything from a pair of heeled sandals or classic court shoes for that festive look for this season.



As to the question of ‘how many can I afford’ well, with Very stocking a wide range of dresses, shoes and accessorises to suit any budget can you ever really have too many? Very.co.uk is also great for christmas gifts, with a wide range of choices all at brilliant prices, your loved ones will be truely spoilt this Christmas!
