Finding 'The One'

When I decided I was going to attend Derby Day this year, my immediate thought was what to wear?! I'd typically wear an LBD but this year I wanted something a  little different. So I decided on a LWD (Little White Dress).

Once I'd decided I wanted to wear white with black accessories, my hunt for the perfect little white dress began... I wanted something fitted and structured. As soon as I found Camilla and Marc's Garden Dress- I knew I'd found 'the one'. I've never really been a fan of neoprene fabric and felt the neoprene phase would fade pretty quickly. However this dress is genius! not completely made from neoprene, the description of the dress labels it a 'scuba like' fabric. It's stiff enough to  hold its shape whilst feeling soft and wearable at the same time. Its not heavy the way a neoprene dress would be and drapes in all the right places. The hem length is a little shorter than I'd usually wear so I ensured I balanced it out by wearing a black round toe pump. As the dress is statement enough on its own, I kept my accessories minimal and of course stuck with the black and white theme. My oversized bow fascinator was Alannah Hill and finished off the outfit perfectly.

The hunt for the perfect dress is always a hard one but once you've found 'the one' I promise you'll know and if you don't- Enlist the help of a stylist to narrow your options down for you- It's what we love to do!
