I have never been one for formal looks or cocktail looks not because I don't get them but because my lifestyle is pretty casual max to max semi formal. But you guys know I like to try new things and experiment with different styles but staying true to my own personal style of effortless chic. So here is my way of cocktail dressing or formal dressing.
The dress is from Vesper, their summer collection has gorgeous formal and semi formal dresses, skirts and tops and a great mix of bold and pastel colours, perfect for date night, bridesmaid, weddings, take you from desk to dinner or any formal/ semi formal event. The quality is great and the fit runs true to size do check them out for some classic, elegant but trendy pieces, isn't that's what we all want! the collection is available on their site as well as on lipsy and they deliver worldwide.
Now this dress, In one word is hotness!! From the hot pink to the sexy back to the neck detail, it makes your head turn! To make such a hot number look a bit effortless and still keeping it formal I chose to do my hair in a messy but chic side braid and wore block heel shoes. They brought the sexiness a bit down and umped the sweetness a bit up. So we still have a perfect cocktail / formal look but one that is also relaxed! Body conscious or bodycon dresses belong to the forever in style category, and are the epitome of sexiness and also the most unforgiving so my one piece of advice for all of us ladies with not so toned bodies is to wear body shaping underwear inside so things look polished, I wore one with this.
Silver and pink is the perfect colour combo but gold looks great as well! I also took the risk of mixing metallics, silver shoes with gold jewellery, another huge trend, and I think it came out well. Remember, do not rule out anything without trying!
Since I wanted a block heel for the relaxed vibe I chose the pointed toe to keep it still formal. This exact same one is linked below.

I am quite the same, my friend. I hardly, if ever, purchase clothes for the sheer purpose of a formal event because it seems to be such a waste. I tend to buy pieces which, with a little change of accessories, can be used for different occasions. Although I could never pull off the dress you're wearing, Chichi, it's pure hubba hubba hubba xoxo
ReplyDeleteYou truly love trying out new things and you never disappoint when you do. this dress speaks miss independent and date night at the same time. I love the color too. You look flawless dear!!
