Tis the Season to Party: Chic & Sleek (Look 1)

December is always a busy month but personally, I'm a big fan. I love that it's so social and you get to catch up with friends and just generally celebrate.

Throughout December I'll be doing a mini series on Christmas party looks with lots of different styles and plenty of inspiration! Read more

I’ve Seen This Before

I do realise wearing the same thing on the blog twice is probably committing some kind of fashion blogging faux pas but I wasn't quite ready to let go of this off the shoulder top quite yet. Although the sun may have disappeared my love for this adorable top hasn't, so I've styled it up for the recent colder weather. Read more

Pyjamas All Day

I am so happy the pyjama trend continues to reign on in the fashion stakes. On weekends I find it a real struggle to change out of PJs; aren't cosy pyjama weekends just the best? So it is with great delight I found the perfect pyjama style jacket which not only looks great but is also super comfy! Read more

An Evening on the [Mykonos] Town

Mykonos Style, Sorted!

When you're on holiday it's absolutely essential to feel comfortable, especially if you're like me and want to sample as much of the local cuisine as possible. I have to make sure whatever I'm wearing has room for a full on food baby! This look was my favourite and allowed for plenty of eating! Read more

My EasyJet Travel Look

I'm so excited because today I'm headed off to Mykonos for four glorious days! It's my first holiday this year with no work involved, so I'm really looking forward to relaxing and catching up on some sleep. Sadly, like all good things, you have to get through a little bit of hassle to get to the good part. This trip involves a 4:30am wake-up call and an easyJet flight. We all know flying easyjet is a pain so I thought I'd share what I wear and how I prepare for it. Read more

The BEST Jacket on the High Street

Winter is beginning to slowly creep in. There is a crispness in the air and although we're not quite at coat weather yet, we're definitely headed there. Despite it not quite being cold enough I wanted to chat about this AMAZING snuggly jacket that I recently bought from ZARA because I know it's going to be a sell out and I don't want you to miss out on it!

Work It

Workwear is one of those styles of dressing which seems pretty unexciting and dull but weirdly it’s one of my favourite to style. I love the challenge of working between the parameters of office rules but still managing to add your own twist and maintaining a “fashion led” look rather than a “boring led” one! Read more

Review: Christian Louboutin Pigalle & Pigalle Follies

If you're into your luxury brands or heels then a pair of Christian Louboutins are a wardrobe staple. There's something about those seductive red lacquered soles that makes women (and men) go weak at the knees. I'm reviewing two of the most classic styles, Pigalle and Pigalle Follies and chatting about the comfort, versatility, wearability and if they offer good value for money. Read more

Five Favourite: Loungewear Pieces

Now that Autumn is well and truly upon us, we are beginning to gear ourselves up for evenings snuggled underneath blankets with a huge hot chocolate in our comfiest loungewear. This is the time to hibernate and relax before we gear up for "party season" which is usually somewhere between mid-November to December. These are all my favourite lounge pieces to hibernate in!

Some Recent Food Discoveries

I'm not much of a foodie which is why you don't see all that many food related posts on here. I don't usually do restaurant reviews, despite London having some of the best cuisines in the world because I'm quite a picky eater and I feel I can't offer a comprehensive overview of the dishes and all the different flavours. That being said, as and when I do chat about food, you can be rest assured it's something I love and eat/enjoy on a regular basis (and is probably sugary to satisfy my sweet tooth!). Here are 3 recent food discoveries which I'm currently obsessing over. Read more

Battle of the Beauty Boxes: Glossybox | Birchbox | Look Fantastic

Month after month my most read post is "Birchbox Vs. Glossybox Vs. Latest In Beauty - Which is Best?" and it's also one of my oldest, so I thought it was high time I updated it. The first big difference between my original post and this one, is I've swapped out Latest in Beauty for Look Fantastic. If you're on the hunt for the best beauty box, this is definitely worth a read. Read more

Review: Givenchy Antigona

Now that I've had it just over a year, I thought I'd do a full review in case anyone is also thinking of treating themselves to this gorgeous bag. Read more

Just Something I Love

Sometimes you put on an outfit which pretty much personifies you and makes you feel amazing! I wanted to share this look, for no other reason then I'm head over heels in love with it! I'm not rocking a particular trend or styling a statement piece here, this is simply something I had in my wardrobe and pulled together. Without a shadow of a doubt, this is the most "me" and best outfit I've worn in a while. Read more

ZARA OOTD

The high street brand who seems to get it right every single time is ZARA.

This season they've outdone themselves and my wish list seems to be never-ending! This ZARA OOTD features just a few of this season's highlights. Read more

Secret Spa Review

Secret Spa is possibly the best kept beauty secret in London (and surrounding counties). In simplest terms, it's Uberlux for mobile beauty. They provide 5 star treatments to your home, office or hotel. It works via an app or online where you can book a wide range of beauty and wellness treatments and as little as 3 hours later you can be enjoying a treatment in the comfort of your own home thanks to their army of mobile technicians.

Last Days of Summer

This is the only summery dress I've bought all season. Summer has been a late bloomer here in London so pretty dresses have been fairly low down my shopping list. That being said I think I've found the best one on the high street! This affordable dress is an absolute must have. Read more

A Summer of Weddings

When it comes to weddings I'm a dress girl. There is something lovely about having a new dress to help celebrate your friend's special day. If I'm stuck for options and in need of inspiration, Lyst is a perfect place to see a huge variety of styles and labels all in one place. I would go as far to say as it'd be impossible not to find at least one dress you didn't fall in love. Read more

Empties

I always like an empties post because it's all well and good saying you "like" a product but actually using every last drop proves it! There are plenty of products I love but because I'm constantly changing up my routine to try something new, often even the ones I like eventually get pushed to the back of the beauty cupboard and forgotten about but these are some of the products I simply couldn't forget about!

Brand Watch: London Road Jewellery

When I first discovered London Road Jewellery I wasn’t just smitten with their beautiful designs, but also their incredible London heritage. London Road is a third generation jewellery manufacturer. To this day every piece is designed and made in their original South London workshop. For a brand to have such a strong London heritage struck a chord with me and I snapped up the opportunity to head south of the river to learn more and take a sneaky look behind the scenes. Read more

Review: Valentino Rockstuds

Time for a Blog Giveaway

It feels as though it has been way too long since I last did a blog giveaway, so to make up for it I've pulled together the biggest assortment of goodies. In the past, I've done giveaways featuring a single palette or a couple of small items but this time I wanted to do something a little bit more special. I pulled together a big bundle of lovely prizes and I'm still adding to it, so there will be even more up for grabs than in the pictures. Read more

Going for (Rose) Gold

If you caught my last post you might remember me saying I don't do "sexy", so I thought I'd put myself to the challenge and style something a bit sexier and glamorous than my usual get up. Like most bloggers, I LOVE a bit of rose gold and as I'm never one to do things by half (in fact, I tend to take the things I love to the extreme), I decided I'd rock it from head to toe. Read more

Festival Inspo: Easy Breezy (Look 3)

As much as festivals have become a playground for fashionistas, sometimes you just want comfort first. Festivals are quite often sticky and dusty places (or muddy if you're in the UK) so feeling easy breezy and comfortable is a must. This is my comfort first festival look this summer! Read more

New In Beauty #1

Two beauty posts on the trot is definitely unusual on That New Dress but how could I not share some of these beauty newbies which have recently hit store shelves? Generally if something is new, I absolutely have to give it a go but it isn't always a success, so I figured I'd start sharing my honest thoughts on them before you end up wasting your pennies too!
