“The dress must follow the body of a woman, not the body following the shape of the dress.” Hubert de Givenchy
The black dress is a style staple and this A/W18 this timeless classic has undergone a fashion facelift. From embellished dresses, lace gowns to sequin numbers, the BD has never been more exciting.
If you don’t already have New Year’s Eve plans, you’d better at least have your outfit planned because things always come through at the last minute in my experience. Whether it’s a glass of wine with friends, a night out at the bar, or the crazy NYE ball (as the one I’m attending this year) you can’t go wrong with this beautiful Black Mesh Flower Applique Dress (only £50 plus 20% discount!).
As much as I love sequins, these aren’t for everyone, but there really is an option to suit all personalities out there. If you are still unsure about this whole sparkly shebang, then pick a classic number with a few scattered pearls or applique on the bodice and skirt.
What is it about a black dress that makes it so elegant, timeless and relevant season to season? Elegant, timeless class, easy to style, versatile, looks great with any colour, the black dress never fails to make an impression!
Personally, I live for a little embellishment when it comes to black dresses. Beading, interesting cut or shape, fringe, lace, basically anything that helps add a bit of drama.
I love the multitude of styling options this dress offers. So good with a denim jacket to create a more casual vibe, I also really love the way it looks with a tailored jacket for a more formal office look. Basically, as far as dresses are concerned, this one just does not disappoint! I find myself so obsessed at the moment, I look for places and reasons to wear it again and again.

The sleeves on your dress are so fun, what a nice piece! I agree you can’t beat a little black dress as there are so many ways to rewear it! I usually pick dresses from my wardrobe to rewear over Christmas, but this year is the first year in a long time that I bought a new dress and I’m looking forward to wearing it!
Hope that you are having a great weekend 🙂 We are heading down to my parents today for a family dinner which will be nice 🙂
