Hey!
There are a few good trends out there for Autumn/Winter 2013, and Simply Be have got two great ones for you.
Simply Be gave me the chance to pick an outfit from these collections to wear as a 'date night' outfit. As soon as I saw the jacket in the 'Flirty 50's' I knew that had to be part of it! So, here is what I ended up with :)
Animal Jacquard Boyfriend Blazer £45 (here - and on sale for £27 right now!)
Floral Printed Doll Dress £45 (here)
Box Clutch Bag with Metal Clasp and Detachable Chain £25 (here)
Slate tights - Marisota
Black pumps - Evans
I went for a clash of prints, but I really think it works well. The dress is so pretty for me, in fact, it is my first floral print dress, and I have to say that I love it. I have been on the look out for another 'day dress' than my two ASOS skater dresses, and this is it! Here is a little close up of the fabric...
And it's also a great length for me! It's longer than my other 'day dresses' so I managed to get away with wearing it with tights, which I was so pleased with!
The jacket is so light and comfortable, and I loved the pattern. I described it as giraffe print, but black and white. It has 3/4 length sleeves with turn-ups and is a great length. I can't wait to style this with soooooo many things!
Lastly, is the cute little box clutch bag. It is available in Black and Ivory, and I went for the Ivory as all I seem to own is black clutch bags! I love it's detachable chain, which means you can take it from being a little hand held clutch to a bag over your shoulder.
This is such a cute little bag and I am so pleased I picked it in the ivory as it looks stunning with the gold edging.

ReplyDeleteI LOVEEEEE THAT BAG! It is great with that outfit.
ReplyDeleteI've always avoided box bags but having seen this one I might have a punt at one.
I am having a proper bag loving moment right now...so much so I might even write a post about just bags. x
It's not normally a bag that I would choose, but I felt like trying something different :) x
ReplyDeleteI really like the way that you have put the prints together and the bag is gorgeous x
ReplyDeleteI've been eyeing that dress for so long. Does it run true to size for you and is it a stretch fabric? Sorry for all the questions!
ReplyDeleteYes it does run true to size, and no it's not stretchy :) x
