1 dress, 2 ways


I have been a very lucky girl and received this beautiful bodycon baby pink dress with a white rim from styleheist.co.uk. Not only is this dress the most perfect pastel pink, but the material is so soft and comfy to wear, which I tend to find very rare in fitted dresses. As this dress just fits me right down to a 'T', I thought I would share with you 2 different ways you can style a simple bodycon dress like this one for a day or night look.




Look 1-
I thought I would go for a styled down, casual 'popping to town' day look, and teamed the dress with a white knitted jumper. The jumper is perfect to draw in the white rim of the dress whilst toning down the glamour of it to make it suitable for the day. The jumper is quite a fine knit so it is not too warm and cosy, making it perfect for this weather (as it seems to be indecisive whether it is hot or stormy). The jumper I am wearing is actually from ASDA, however white knits are simple and essential items for the whole year, and are therefore fairly easy to find as they are usually available in most stores.

I then accessorised this outfit with my most favourite item at the moment...my ASOS coral/pink lip shoulder bag. This is the cutest purchase I have made in a long time and is very 90's inspired, which is right on trend this summer and festival season. It is fairly small which I think is very handy for when you are out and about and don't want too much luggage, especially if you are going to a festival you are able to keep all your essentials near you at all times (making the long shoulder strap super handy!). And most of all the colour is amazing and super hot for the summer, making you strand out and be right on trend.

Finally, my bargain purchase is my white sandals from Primark, which are also really soft and surprisingly comfortable to wear. They are just perfect to wear with any outfit, and also come in black to match any look or style you want! At only £6 they are the perfect sandal to rock any trend this summer.







Look 2-
My second look is a going out style which is why I have styled the gorgeous dress with a statement rustic silver clutch and matching platform heels, to add a bit of glamour to the look. The shoes are originally from Topshop, however as I have mentioned in one of my previous blog posts, they are from the amazing next2nowt.co.uk, which sells famous high street brands at discounted prices. The matching clutch however is from boohoo.com. Despite the different brands, the colour match of the two are perfect together as they are so closely matched, therefore really completing an edgy yet glamorous look to the outfit, and perfectly complimenting the dainty pastel pink of the dress.

I then accessorised with another item I have previously mentioned on the blog, this Primark statement necklace. The necklace completes this night time look, as it still provides the silver edge to add to the silver heels and bag, whilst including a row of other pastel coloured suede rope; blue, lilac, pink and white, which layer on top of the dress, beautifully. This bargain buy completes any look, but in this case adds further glamour and colour to compliment such a wonderful dress.



I just want to say a huge thanks again to styleheist.co.uk, for the most stunning dress which as I have shown, can be worn in so many ways!

Have a wonderful day,

Phoebe
