Beyonce House of CB Dress Dupe £13

Recently Beyonce rocked this House of CB Dress and since then I have been looking for a dupe, I popped into New Look recently and picked up this beauty. This dress is great for the upcoming party season, great for a dinner, the ruching will really hide a food belly. If you are expecting or have just given birth then its also really flattering.

Check out Beyonce in the dress here. and the New Look Dress here  for just £13.00

My Top Tip for Wedding Season 2018






















So...we are at that age where loads of our friends are getting married and wedding season seems never ending. In the UK the average cost of attending a wedding is £266, that's a lot of money especially if you are attending multiple weddings.

Wedding Season is always a tricky time for women, what to wear...what dress...what shoes?? Complimentary hair and make up. Am I overdressed or under dressed. Its a lot to wrap your head around.
To take the stress out of wedding shopping I like to shop for outfits in advance, I mean way in advance I know it may seem a little strange but really it works. I usually attend around 3 weddings every summer, but for a lot of people I know it can be so much more.

So to ease the expense and the stress, I buy outfits in the end of summer or Christmas sales. Summer styles and colours tend to repeat themselves every year, go for classic silhouettes and shades you naturally gravitate to. So you know you will still love the dress next year.
The party season November-December is a great time to buy an outfit for a wedding, it doesn't even have to be a dress, jumpsuits work well too.

The dress I'm wearing is from ASOS and its two years old, I bought in on sale for around £20. Bargain right, so all that was left for me to do was shop my wardrobe for a matching shoe and bag.


I have tried to find similar dresses on ASOS....let me know in the comments whats your top tip for wedding season.

The Denim Skirt- Wardrobe Stable



The denim skirt is a modern day, classic wardrobe stable for me.This denim skirt has been worn everywhere this summer, It was purchased at the end of last Summer from Primark for £3. Yep you read that correctly. You gotta love a Primarni bargain right. Denim skirts can take you from day to night in a minute and flatter the fuller figure and the petite too. Loads of celebrities have been rocking the look too..including Rihanna check out her denim on denim looks here and here.

When you’re thinking about what to wear with your denim skirt, you’ll realise you can create almost any look you like. 

Ways to style:
Silk/satin camisole  
Crop top
Ruffle sleeve top
Denim on Denim
T-Shirt
White Shirt

Shoes:
Lace up sandals
Trainers
Block Heels
Converse

Denim skirts can also be transitioned into Autumn and styled with suede / velvet jackets and midi boots.
