The Perfect £20 Dress


So this is a bold claim, but I think I've found the perfect dress for any occasion and it was only £20. Winning. It's burgundy so I guess I'm getting my autumn on, it's the wrap style that I've grown to love and it's not too short that you'd feel like you couldn't wear it in front of your boyfriend's family. Ticks all my boxes anyway!

I found this beaut in New Look when I wasn't looking for anything in particular and had to snap it up because of it's versatility. It wouldn't look out of place during the day with leggings and flats and it would look incredible on an evening with bare legs and heels. Seems I've compromised in this post and gone for bare legs and flats. Oh me, forever looking odd.






 I actually wore this to London last Tuesday when I went to Zizzi with Ellie and Hannah and as I'd be walking around in London all day in it then going for dinner I wore my black ankle boots with it. Possibly a little under dressed for dinner, but a girl ain't walking round London all day in anything other than boots or trainers (felt so Game of Thrones saying that).

Dress - New Look (here)
Boots - Topshop (old)

  3. I can only agree with you, that dress is perfect and I absolutely love the colour! You're right, this dress can be worn during the day but it would also work at a wedding! The location is great, too, nothing beats Southbank :) xx
