Party Dresses

I'm the sort of girl who can't wear white jeans. I'm a spiller, a dropper, generally just a bit clumsy.
For this reason I never take my camera to parties.
This makes blogging about party dresses a bit tricky... I suppose I could take a few pictures before heading out but I'm far too last minute for that. I tend to end up rushing out the door with my heels in one hand and a mascara wand in the other!
Thankfully I still have Instagram so I can point you in the direction of my recent glad rags.


Last night we had dinner at Coya (my new favourite restaurant) and I went for my old favourite, the Nasty Gal number.


In Raffles I wore one of my mum's old shirts from the 70s. Obviously can't link to this one but this is pretty similar.


For the Daily Mix launch I went for the world's most flattering LBD from American Apparel.


I wish I took a better picture of this Missguided illusion dress. It's a serious Jessica Rabbit number. It gives you hourglass curves and a teeny tiny waist (even if you've had a few too many mince pies).


But my favourite by far is still my twirly Parisian dress from ASOS.


Custard is turning out to be quite the dapper little gent himself.
He mentioned that he might try his paw at writing another of his blog posts soon... what do you think? Maybe a fashion post?

    You look gorgeous as always! I wish my life was that exciting! Actually I've been wondering for a while, how many of your posts are from work-related events? I'm really interested in the line of work you do and I'm just curious about all the different things you're doing! I'm hoping to do something related to social/digital media when I'm out of college so any tips would help! Happy Hols!

    A Custard fashion post?! Yes, please!! :) He's just so adorable!

    Great pictures and dresses as always!
    Although I would be way too overdressed wearing this in my city. (Actually kinda sad having to dress down so you don't look like somebody wearing a balldress at a rock club)

    Hi Rose! I love your blog and all the wonderful tips you post, but I can't stop wondering - your breasts look AMAZING at all time!!! how do you do it? Could you maybe make a post on bra-suggestions or something like that? I think it is so hard when you want to wear a beautiful dress with low back etc. what do you do?

    I'm clumsy too. Worse than a bull in a china shop. I was leaving Danger of Death in Brick Lane and knocked a dirt-covered bicycle at the top of the stairs into half a dozen immaculately dressed people behind me.

    Hi Rose,

    You look amazing as always. I was reading through your last blog post and I saw you answered a girls advice.
    I was wondering if you could give me your opinion. There is this guy at work and I really like him and I think he maybe
    likes me...I'm an actress and during rehearsals he kept looking on my phone and he called me girl and he joked a lot with me
    and when he looked at me I felt something.
    We are in the same company and see each other a lot.
    Am I being silly?
    Thanks and I really love your blog xxx

    What do you think of this dress?
    I just ordered, hope it all goes well and it's safe :) It's because of you I discovered Nastygal!
    I was wondering, Which size do you normally order at nastygal and what's the quality like?

    Xoxo
