We finally had a little sunshine over the past few days & after the miserable last few weeks we decided we ought to make the most of it & went down to the local park. At the very top of the park is a huge old house, which was a school for sometime & now is just abandoned, crumbling & apparently haunted! It has the most lovely overgrown walled garden though, complete with secret passageways & doors, it’s like something straight out of a fairytale.

I thought it would make the perfect spot to show off this shirt dress sent to me by Glamorous! I have a bit of a thing for black shirt dresses & I love the cut out detailing & semi sheer fabric of this one, the gathered bottom gives it a nice girly edge too, which makes it stand out from my other more masculine versions, I couldn’t resist it. I think they have become my thing, much like my black tailored jackets & black boots, that to anyone else they all look exactly the same & I find myself having to justify how they’re actually all unique & different! Though, I will admit, the ‘differences’ between some of my boots are so tiny, I’m not even sure how I managed to convince myself they were different enough to my other pairs to be worth buying! I think we all have at least one fashion vice like this though, I’m not alone right?!

PS: Glamorous currently have free delivery on all orders over £45 & 20% discount with the code GLAMOROUS20! You can also find them on Facebook & Twitter.

On Wednesday we were invited to co-host the Nelly & Fashiolista ‘High Heels’ event in Nottingham at Coco Tang. I don’t get to attend as many events as I’d like to, living a little way from London & being unable to drive makes it sort of awkward, so I couldn’t turn down the opportunity to go along to one so close by!

We decided to shoot some outfit photos before we left for the party & it was a good job we did, as again, I barely got to take any during the actual night! We didn’t really have the time to & I always feel super awkward having outfit photos taken when there’s a whole room full of people! Does anyone else find that cringey or is it something I should just get over?

Before & After (+ Slim fit velour One-Piece)!

As with the last party Nelly threw, it was a seriously fun night & the guests were spoiled with yet more free shoes, goodie bags & competitions galore! Personally, I had my eye on the platforms with the ombre heel in red & also the black version, though predictably, I loved all of the spiked & studded styles too!

My task for the night was to judge the shoe design competitions, anyone who knows me will know this is one of the worst things you could ask me to do, I am so indecisive & I felt so mean picking only one favourite, they were all so good! I was also in charge of the One-Piece competition, getting the girls to dress up in a One-Piece & do silly poses for the photographer for the chance to win one themselves! Not wanting to miss out, I pulled one over my own outfit & wore it for almost the entire night! The guys at Fashiolista were even kind enough to let me take home the one I was wearing, though to be honest I don’t think I’d want it back after it’d been worn all night if I were them either!

We had a great night talking to all the girls, trying to decide which pair of heels we liked best & laughing about how silly I looked in my dress & heels + the One-Piece! And I got to meet the lovely Aisling too, who also came along to help! I won’t lie, I’m probably enjoying the comfort of the One-Piece a little too much… It’s not really my thing at all, but I think I’ve been seduced by it’s snugglyness, I’ve barely taken it off since!
