Tangled Up In Blue

Dress: Primark

Shoes: Internacionale

Cobalt blue is back with a bang! The vibrant blues have been all over the place lately. I can't walk into a shop without seeing some sort of section dedicated to the on-trend colour of the season. I love the flare to this dress. Can you believe this is a Primark number? Sometime their stuff is absolutely amazing! It's just knowing where to look!

I love the mesh style sleeves and cuffed wrists to give it more volume and created a fitted look. Mesh has been in and out of fashion quite frequently and for any first timers who don't want to flash too much flesh then some simple sheer sleeves is a great way to ease your way into the trend!

To add some shape I to the dress and show off my figure a little more I added a simple gold patent belt. I actually can't remember where I got this from as I have had it for that long but I have a strong feeling it was possibly attached with something else I had bought. I like the contrast of the blue and gold and think it just adds an edge to the overall outfit. The dress is quite low cut with where the cross over forms, which for non-busty girls like myself proves problematic. I have actually pinned it higher than it usually is for it to sit better for me personally. 

Nude shoes - my favourites - to keep focus on the dress, any bold shoes would make the whole thing look a little wild! I know that these shoes are just about done but I honestly don't have the heart to throw them away. They are the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned and they are perfect for when I am working and on my feet for hours straight. They will be with me until a heel breaks!

Went for a light smokey eye tonight on my eyes with a light brown across the crease built with some warmer creamy colours. My dress is very bright and colourful so I wanted to keep my eyes quite neutral. Started with a light base and didn't contour too much, just a light and subtle enhancement to the cheekbones tonight. Also went for a neutral lip colour again to avoid any clashing with my dress - partially because my microphone is absolutely covered in lipstick due to gigging, I end up with it lipstick all over it and then all over my face by the end of the night! I'll try and get a picture up for you all!


Hope you like this look!
