Dress – Wallis* | Coat – H&M | Shoes – SheLikes | Earrings – La Moda*
Another day, another dress! Wallis kindly sent me this great bright coral pink dress, with the task of thinking about some occasions and places in my home city of Manchester that it might be suited to:
- Summer Wedding – this would be an ideal summer wedding dress, if I was invited to one! I always see fabulous looking wedding parties outside of venues such as the Town Hall and the Midland Hotel. I wouldn’t look out of place in one of those parties wearing this outfit, but of course it would be great for a wedding wherever you are in the country.
- Dinner – a fancy meal out is my favourite excuse to dress up, and eating out is something I do far more often than I should. I would probably only dress up like this for dinner to mark a special occasion, a birthday or anniversary for example, but it would look great at Austrilasia, Grill On The Alley or Manchester House.
- Girls’ night – now I wouldn’t wear this dress to a student club night, for example, but for a more sophisticated girls’ night out it would be ideal. Cocktails at Neighbourhood in Spinningfields, or Cloud 23 perhaps?
The dress itself is fab – it is plain and fitted underneath with a chiffon overlay, which falls to leave a split at the back, which I love. Of course the colour is great too! It’s the perfect match for my Illamasqua lipstick in Scandal. I’m also wearing earrings from La Moda’s new jewellery collection, which look an awful lot more expensive than they are (£8!), go-to pointed heels from SheLikes, and super basic H&M coat.
What do you think? If you know Manchester, do you agree with my choice of occasions and locations? Where would you wear this dress?
