We've all been there. You've got to dress to impress for an important occasion: meeting the 'in-laws' / posh tea party / friend's wedding / the races (delete as appropriate). You don't mind splashing the cash for a brand new outfit... but you want to invest in items that you'll wear again.Under the pretence of 'researching' (well, I do work at ASOS HQ, remember?) and in a totally-not-skiving-honest-if-my-boss-is-reading-this, I scoured ASOS.com for a solution to this oh-so common Style SOS - why not give this fail-safe outfit a whirl?
This floral-print silk tea dress has a vintagey feel and is super pretty. The V-neck, button-through front is ultra flattering, as is the gathered waist. Team with this grey drapey waterfall blazer £65 ASOS (not pictured) in chillier climes. The dress is a statement in itself, so keep accessories fairly low-key in soft shades of mink: a classic Chanel-esque quilted bag and too-cute peep-toes. Neutral tones also have the wear-with-anything factor, ensuring you get your money's worth! Special occasions are an excuse to bring on the bling; try a bold cocktail ring and these gorgeous chandelier-style earrings to rev up the wow-factor a few notches.
This is the perfect combination to have on stand-by for those last minute party invites: you need never have another what-to-wear moment again. Well, not this week, anyway...
Ha ha! Thanks for the props! If we gave ourselves themed nicknames, like the Spice Girls, bagsy me the 'Rocky Slut' title thank you please.x
ReplyDeleteThat dress is beautiful, but only two sizes left in stock and neither are mine...
ReplyDeleteOh wow. It was fully stocked when I wrote the post! Advantage of working at ASOS HQ = I will check whether it'll be restocked and let you know. SUCH a pretty dress!x
ReplyDeleteI am a big fan of the lobe candy. x
ReplyDeleteThose shoes will be mine, they're gorgeous.

I tried my bestest to pick individual pieces that are all equally as gorge - and more importantly can be worn more than once. I've lost count of the 'wedding outfits' I've bought in a rush and literally worn for one day, then never again.
ReplyDeleteBut those earrings will add a touch of decadence to any ensemble - and the shoes are just delish. Even if I *do* say so myself... ;)
Waiiiiiil! That is a gorgeous dress and it is sold out!
ReplyDeleteHave seen this very similar alternative to the sadly sold out frock. It's made of cool cotton and is a snip in the sale at only £21! As I write, sizes up to 16 are available. I'm buying one now. x
ReplyDeleteLove the earrings. Look amazing.
