The Perfect LBD


LBD: ASOS

The classic LBD must be elegant, flattering and obviously black! I found my perfect match at ASOS during the summer sales with this lacy asymmetrical number. The wraparound style with asymmetric hem makes it up-to-date and instantly upgrades the dress from simple to sophisticated. The lace acts as a light cover up of the arms and back for modesty and also distinguishes it from other styles; it adds an extra element to the details of the dress. 

Based on my personal opinion I also think the dress looks much more expensive that I got it for, the material is of a good quality and overall fits the body well. Previously it was £65.00 but is now £19.50 an extremely reasonable price for an classy dress that can be worn to a variety of different occasions. The dress is still available currently on the ASOS site but in a limited amount of sizes.

 Necklaces: Primark 
Top: Zara
Trousers: Zara
Sandals: Primark 
In The Algarve, Portugal... 
2nd Look from my holiday is an evening look as it gives a bit more cover up for cooler nights or a windier night as the case was in these photographs! To transform this outfit add a pair of single strap heels for a more classy take. 
The jewellery I am wearing is in fact two necklaces layered, one on the top of another (duh), which immediately makes this one of my statement pieces. I somehow think that these remind me of the dylanlex necklaces but obviously a much cheaper dupe from good old Primark at only 11pounds. 
Both the trousers and top are from Zara, bought in the sale and items I love to easily chuck on as they are lightweight materials and not tight fitting. Linen white trousers,such as these, are definitely a staple item for the summer and hot weather so if you don't have a pair I suggest you get some immediately.
Another bargain from Primark were these double strap sandals at only 8pounds; so comfortable and if you have seen my instagram there are more pictures of the ways I styled them. I love this sandal trend but I don't think it will last very long sadly and therefore the price is a big bonus! 
Tell me what you think of this look guys and thank-you for reading! -apinchofsaffron x
