OOTD- Lacy Little Black Dress

Hey Girls,

If you've read my blog in the past week then you'll know that last night I performed in a charity musical concert to raise money for Rosie's Rainbow Fund. Well the concert was so much fun, raised lots of money for a great cause and left me amazed at how many talented friends I have! I also got to sing a song from Legally Blonde and was told I looked like Reese Witherspoon which all pretty much made my life (not even sure how much I'm exaggerating there). And of course it was a nice excuse to get all dressed up...

Dress- h&m

Belt- Borrowed

Wedges- New Look

Bracelet- Borrowed

Necklace- Usual

Lips- Kate Moss Lasting Finish '107'

Nails- 17 Fast Finish 'Ruby Gem'

The dress code for the night was black dresses with a hint of colour and as I'm obsessed with berry shades at the moment I thought I'd add a deep red. I had a bit of a panic about what dress to wear earlier in the week as all of my black dresses were a bit too posh or night out-ey (you know what I mean) for a family concert so I made a cheeky trip to town and found this lacy little black dress in h&m which has already become one of my favourite items of clothing because it'll work for so many occasions and has a nice flattering skater dress fit. I used the red belt to enhance this clinched in waist fit and add a pop of colour and the wedged shoe boots I bought for the Cosmo Blog Awards to add my much loved bit of 'edge'. I also thought I'd bring out my new Kate Moss lipstick which you can see more about here. When I first put it on the dark purple undertones did make me worry that people would think I was dressing up for Halloween a bit early but it did seem to mute down quite a bit and no one confused me for a vampire! Always a plus...

Today I'm having quite a lazy Saturday which will be spent recovering from the night out we went on after the concert, tidying my room which currently looks like a bomb's hit it and getting some uni work done before I head off for dinner with some friends tonight, although my boyfriend pointed out on the phone earlier that I'll probably only manage to get dressed and put some make up on before I have to leave for dinner which is probably a more realistic plan for the day!

Have a lovely Saturday everyone,

Love Meg

p.s I'd also like to say a big thank you to my friend Amin and his camera for taking these outfit photos for me last night!
