Blazer: Primark. Dress: New Look. Tights: Topshop.


I decided to wear two totally different patterns together and i was actually very impressed with the outfit that was created. I'm wearing a polka dotted dress with a striped blazer, an unusual combination. I wasn't sure about it at first, but i actually am a big fan of this, it's totally out of the ordinary and something you wouldn't see a lot of people wearing considering wearing stripes and spots together is a brave move.  Both pieces aren't quite black, but aren't exactly navy, they're that annoying inbetween colour, so finding something to go with the blazer inparticular is quite a difficult task. This outfit is quite sophisticated, and could easily be worn during the day or the evening, just a change of shoes and bag to create a different look.

I'm going shopping tomorrow in Font Hill in Finsbury Park tomorrow to try and get a nice dress for the Miss Hertfordshire finals on the 18th March. Yes, i know i've left it pretty late, but at least i'm going to get one i suppose. I have no idea what kind of style i want, all i know is that i don't want it to have a long sleeves and i want the length to be to the floor. I'm quite excited about trying on loads of dresses, makes me feel all pretty & feminine. Hopefully i find one that i like and fits beautifully!

I'm always frightened of clashing patterns, I don't know why because it looks amazing! I'm especially loving the clashing with the darker colours
