I first saw this dress on Nancy of Sugar, Darling? blog, and the old fingers twitched on the "Add to Basket" button, but then I saw it on Leah of Just Me, Leah blog and I was sold immediately, this dress had to be mine, and I clicked that button! Look out for Simply Be/JD Williams discount codes, that's what I did, and managed to bag this with a 20% discount.
Obviously when thinking about Chrimbo outfits, with all the sparkles, this is a strong contender, and it got me thinking about how to style it, and then I saw this stole and matching bag (which is huge - folded in half here) which I grabbed from ASOS during their Black Friday discount.
My work's do is a lunchtime affair, and it is on a weekday, but I will be wearing this, even if it ends up being a little OTT, in my mind you can NEVER be OTT!!!!
