Going To The Ball... But What To Wear?

Welcome to the weekend!
Next Thursday evening I have to attend a work related 'Ball'. It's not a full length ballgown event but a cocktail/dressy short number type shindig. I have nothing to wear. Well actually I have quite a few dresses in my wardrobe but I'm worried that they're too short, too long, too big, too tight... You know that feeling? So I have been on a crazed on line shopping frenzy in search of the perfect outfit, as I always do when faced with this situation. In total I have ordered four new dresses, one from Next and three from H&M.




  • Pale Pink H&M £12
  • Black H&M £12


If all else fails I can always go with this Warehouse dress that I wore for a friends birthday last year...

I'm thinking possibly not the pale pink as it's perhaps not dressy enough and is actually made of jersey!

Arrrrgh!!! 

Accessories wise, I don't have such a problem. I'll just pack this lot in my overnight bag...




Promise not to wear all these jewels at once though!

I'm going to have to decide which one to keep and get the rest sent back. Help?! Which dress do you prefer? I am useless at choosing...

If you haven't entered my giveaway you can here

I hope everyone has a lovely weekend!

  3. This is hard because I'm a sucker for lace too. I think I'd go with one of the black lace ones. That stud necklace is amazing.

    1. After posting this I tried the blue one on and unfortunately it's more like a top on me! I'd be constantly pulling it down all night ha ha! It's a shame because visually I like this the best too xx

  6. I'm partial to the blue H&M dress, but that might be because I have almost the exact same style dress from Forever 21 haha. I'm sure whichever you choose you'll look lovely. :)

    Keep calm and carry lipstick.
