#18 Outfit of the week...

Good morning fabulous people!

Thank goodness it is Friday! Another week that has flown by, we hope you have all had a good one. We have had a very busy time with the run up to Valentines...sorting out all the cute goodies that people are sending to their loved ones. Some of you will be having our parcels landing on your doorsteps today and we hope you love whatever has been sent to you, earning your other a few brownie points i am sure!

So enough with the 'lovey dovey' stuff and onto to our favourite Friday feature...Outfit of the week! This week follows on from the theme of last week, smartening up your act. The weather may not be improving that much and that favourite baggy jumper and jeans can't last forever so let's get back into putting a bit more effort into our work wear that can double up as an outfit for an evening out with ease. After all we all want to look like we made an effort but are not prepared to sacrifice that extra half an hour in bed in the mornings to achieve it !

I have chosen a gorgeous dress for this weeks outfit which can be worn in the office for a smart look or as i have done dressed up with your favourite heels to achieve an after work drinks outfit...or maybe even that valentines dinner date ! The dress is a spot jacquard dress from warehouse. A pattern or print is a great way to liven up a dull work wardrobe but still creates that polished look. Versatile for a variety of smarter wear occasions but the cut of the dress is super flattering and not too figure hugging for those days when you don't feel great! I have teamed this dress with a must have pair of high heeled sandals from zara , the criss cross design will bring your wardrobe up to date but again these are great worn with your favourite skinny jeans for a daytime look or paired with any of your great dresses for nights out. We love versatile pieces that you can get your money's worth from! To finish the look i have chosen some simple accessories all from Allofmyheart Exxtra.
The earrings are classic and not to statement ...at just £6.95 they are a great style steal! Then in a nod to valentines i have chosen a pop of red for the gorgeous leather handbag to break up the monochrome palette. This bag is a great all rounder , a classic style that you can throw into any outfit and add a dash of colour if it's looking a bit dull. Nice and practical too....we like to fit all of our essentials in there after all! Try adding colour within your accessories if your not too colour confident it's a great way to overall an old look and also test the water with some colours you wouldn't usually go for. 

Let me know what you think :)
Oh and this will be the last time i mention it....until next year...

Happy Valentines !

Much Love
