After a mad dash home from our Gretna overnight, Craig and I were heading to one of his friends wedding receptions - we really did need a week off with all the madness! We were only going to the evening reception, as we already had our overnight booked before the invitations came out but to be honest we were pretty glad. We have been to so many weddings in the last year, full day events, it was quite nice to be popping along in the evening. 

Craig bought me these beautiful Kurt Geiger shoe boots with are a gorgeous nude ankle boot with a neon pink sol. They are absolutely stunning! I originally tried on the black version with the neon yellow sole months ago and didn't like them on (I really need to realise neon and I are not friends). I love nude shoes - i'm sure you will have all guessed by now - so the pop of pink colour makes a nice change!

Knowing I wanted to wear these shoes, I grabbed this beautiful grey sequin dress from French Connection out the old cupboard. Now I am not a pink girl, at all, but something about this dress caught my attention! It is a super flattering fit, the material is light and comfortable, I love the tie at the waste to which I pull over some material to create a hanging effect. I'm a huge fan of FCUK dresses and always find the heavier the dress, the better it sits.

To finish off the look I grabbed my white Zara blazer to keep the outfit light and summery, perfect for a Summer wedding!

Let me know what you think!

Dress: French Connection

Bag: New Look

Shoes: Primark

If you saw me at any point last Friday you would have noticed I was running around like a headless chicken! I went straight from work to a Malawi Charity Dinner - we girls need time to get ready! With it being an important event I decided to dress appropriately and pull out this French Connection number. It is actually a little large on the top for me (Mum always said my boobs would grow, still waiting on that happening after 21 years...). It is boned on the inside to it pulls everything in and keep it all in place. The dress itself is quite heavy with all of the beading, but I love that, I always find the heavier the dress the better it will sit and hang. 

For my bag, I chose this envelope style clutch with block colours; Navy, grey and black. I felt the blue lifted the colours on the dress. Also love an oversized clutch, fits everything you need! Then, as always, keeping it simple on the shoe front with my very trusted nudes.

Was such a lovely evening raising money for a great cause. Our table won tickets to The Eagles and a huge bottle of Moet, which later went over two at the table - most hilarious opening of a champagne bottle i've witnessed (apologise to anyone who may have been smacked with the cork, it went firing into the sky).
