Hey guys!

 

So Christmas is over sadly, I hope you all had a wonderful time whatever you got up to. Next up though its New years eve!!! Yay. If you’re like me you are probably panicking over what to wear. I have been planning for a while and decided to treat myself to a sparkly new frock to welcome in 2013. I’ve been searching all of my favourite shopping websites for the cutest styles, and I’ve found too many to choose from. I have picked out a few of my favourites from each of my favourite shops to show you and hopefully pass on some inspiration. Each one is special in it’s own way: while one might be glitzy and glam, another might be simple and sweet…so there’s a style here for everyone! So take a peek below and let me know your favourite one!

My Top Five Day to Night Dresses

Lead a busy lifestyle? Don't have time to change after work? Here are my top five dresses that can be worn either day or night:

 

Lady in red

£45 from Miss selfridge. I love this dress as its not too short for day wear and can be dressed up or down with a simple accessory switch up. This dress will give you a 60's look with its tunic style and the colour block will lengthen your frame.

Lacey girl

The shape of this dress will bring out your sexy curves but still be conservative enough for day wear. Wear with tights and pumps for day, and bare legs and heels for night. This dress is from Missguided and costs £30.

Formal Floral

This gorgeous pencil dress is by Next and costs £65. If like me you have slightly wider hips, the floral bodice will balance out your figure. For day mix with a cute cardigan and courts and for night, wear with a clutch and rocking heels.

 Flattering wrap

I chose this dress for my top five as this will flatter the fuller bust while bringing in the waist. Also the colour will make you stand out in a crowd. For day i recommend wearing with a vest underneath and also tights. For night, whip them off and party the night away. This dress is from ASOS and costs £35.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pretty print

 

Prints are big for A/W 2012. I loved this over sized feather print dress from Motel Rocks. Wear with tights and flats for day and hit the town at night with killer heels, a clutch and some sparkling jewellery. This dress costs £48 but with my discount code: gemmasbeautiful you can get 20 % off.
