Never underestimate the power of a Little Black Dress. Girls night out, first date or Valentine's dinner with your husband - a LBD is the perfect ingredient for getting all dressed up. If you've seen some of my other night out outfits, like my hen night or Christmas night, then you'll soon see that my favourite style is a midi dress or one shoulder, or both so I was very excited by my latest wardrobe addition. My Black One Shoulder Slinky Midi Dress* is from Femme Luxe, is only £19.99 and possibly the most flattering dress that I own.
This midi dress is figure hugging but with the slinky material and ruched detail it's very forgiving over any lumps and bumps you might be less confident about. The belted waist is completely on trend for AW '18. The midi length is quite sophisticated but doesn't drown me even though I'm only 5 foot 3. Black is the perfect blank canvas for wearing any pair of killer heels and for me it's the perfect chance to wear glitter! These glitter chunky heel, platform sandals are Head Over Heels by Dune. Layer on the jewellery and you're good to go!
My hair is curled with my Babyliss Pro Large Wand, obviously, because I'm obsessed with it. I always find when I'm wearing a one shoulder or one sleeve dress that I want to wear my hair to one side. My foundation is Estee Lauder Double Wear with Vichy Dermablend Concealer. I've used Benefit Hoola Bronzer for contour and Huda Northern Lights for highlight. My mascara is Benefit They're Real, eyeliner is L'Oreal Super Liner and I've used NYX San Paulo lip liner all over my lips. Sometimes I'm just a little too lazy to find a lipstick and lip liner combo that match perfectly.
