Lace that blue dress up

So the sun came out to play today and I was overly excited to rock a dress I had just recently purchased. Trust me because I am quite tall, it ended up looking really short on me so much so that heels would have made it look way too short even for a night out. So i decided to pair it with my brogues and this ensemble was weird because if anyone ever told me a year ago that I would be pairing a mini lace dress with a pair of flat brogues as opposed to flat sandals or heels, I would have burst out in disagreement. I guess that is the whole essence of fashion, it is about having an open mind and embracing different trends in ways that fit your personality. In as much as I have streaks of being a tomboy, I dont mess with my feminine outlook, it is mandatory that I look tip toe at least for the most part if not from head to toe. This is how I rocked my lace dress ... enjoy...

First because the neckline of the dress is almost high and round, it is best to rock a center part straight weave. It sits well on the outift as it would sit well when one is rocking a turtle neck top or dress.

On a day like this make sure to oil your legs profusely to avoid any ashy looks since ones legs would be on constant display.

Go into a world of your own. Yes! Ignore anyone's opinion when dressed up and remember that you are beautiful regardless. Take at least a few minutes to close your eyes and remind yourself of what a beautiful woman you are because indeed you are beautiful.

Considering that this look is being paired with flat brogues, try not to wear too many accesories. This will make the ensemble look clumsy and attention will be taken away from the statement dress and statement pair of gold brogues. I chose this statement bangle because it is one piece and quite simple.

Your nails should be done, minimal makeup if you wish but stick to nude lips. If you intend to have ruby woo on, pls pair this dress with flat white sandals and a lovely carry on bag which isnt all over the place.

Preferably I would advice you to rock any one of these chanel boy bags or sling bags in this nature which would remain on your side and not look clumsy.

Or alternatively, you can rock the following sling bags also or any similar designs. Not necessarily the chosen designers for this post

 3 designs from celine

If you would like to throw in a clutch, be my guest and rock the design below from celine with the lace dress.

Celine Clutches

If you would rather rock the lace dress with big handbags... then one of the following may be your pick

For a figure that hugs that dress perfectly, adapt a work out routine like running in between these pillars for example lol. Looking fit makes looking good seem effortless...winks

If you dont want a bangle as an accessory, you can throw in a thin gold anklet.

You can rock this outfit to:

A boat cruise

A boat party preferably with black or white flat sandals

A quick stroll to the beach with the hubby

A simple rooftop wine tasting with the hubby or with your girls

A house party if you dare to...lol

Holiday sightseeing with your friends or your hubby

And anywhere you deem appropriate

If the sun is messing with your eyes, throw some shades on ... Miu Miu or Celine ..winks

 Miu Miu Sunglasses

 Celine Sunglasses

Craving a boat cruise?

Well stop looking into the water and get on the boat...lol.... You can jump on it with the brogues or change to flat sandals.

That broad smile indicates your probably gonna stick to your brogues? Or your still thinking about which flat to change to.. lol ...Take your time

Oh stubborn you... I guess the brogues win after all... lol and quit with the innocent look..lol
