The £11.50 ASOS Midi Dress

You know how I love a bargain, I mean lest we forget the fabulous Jeffrey Campbell spike purchase I made during the new year.
Well I am equally delighted with this one which I got from the ASOS sale.
Its another case of "keep it simple stupid"and a welcome new member of my LBD collection.

I loved its Midi cut, the backless detail and its effortless simplicity.
I have a few friends birthdays coming up over March and had swore blind I wouldn't buy myself any new outfits as I'm in the process of a saving initiative that I have mentioned here and here. But when I saw the £11.50 price tag I caved. Coupled with my ASOS Premier account it was in my hands the following day and I was delighted.



The only problem Im having is that such a simple bargainous dress deserves a probably-not-so-bargainous-statement-necklace.
This necklace from Topshop is the sort of statement piece I have in mind, whether I will treat myself remains to be seen!

Do you like midi dresses?

Last Saturday- The Races OOTD/TN

Hello to all my lovely new followers :)
Just a little post - I have been worse for wear today!

So...Saturday I headed to Chester races.
Surprisingly it was sunny and warm all day and a group of us went to celebrate my friend's 22nd.
I love the races because its an excuse to get dressed up!

I didn't get time to take any decent photos so I'm gonna have to improvise a little.
I wore dress from French Connection called Penelope dress
Its just so feminine and romantic it suited the occasion.
(ref: Google Images)
I love the shapes the structuring creates at the bottom and it really helps flare the skirt out.
On top of that I am an absolute sucker for embellishment!
When I initially saw this dress it certainly had the WOW factor! :)
Here's me and my guy pre-races.

While we were there a photographer asked me and one of my girlfriends to have our picture taken for Cheshire West Magazine...we will keep an eye out for that!
