White Lace Dress

Let me tell you the story of this dress. It was love at first sight. I found it on the Abercrombie & Fitch website, unfortunately my size was sold out. I didn't lose hope and I continued to check their site every day. Believe it or not, the same thing happened when it was back on stock. It had sold out again in a few hours. Finally, I got my hands on it a couple of weeks later.

Why was I so determined on buying it? Well, it is just perfect for any occasion. I always try to but items that I know I'm going to use a lot. You can dress it up for a wedding like I did here with nude suede pumps and an embellished jacket and clutch. If you are having drinks with friends, you can dress it down by wearing it with flats and a denim jacket.

But what made me fall in love was the beauty of the dress. Its shape is the most flattering for my body type: tight bodice and full skirt. The intricate lace is a work of art just like the back of the straps and the see-through waist detail.

Even if the white lace dress is the main character in this post, I simply can't conclude without talking about the embellished clutch. It combines colorful stones with wooden beads. A true joy to behold.

The make-up was done by Clinique. I've been using their products since I started wearing make-up back in my teens. I'm such a huge fan that I find it hard to try other brands! This time I took the opportunity to try two of their new products: Clinique Pop Lip Colour + Primer (shade 01) and Beyond Perfecting Foundation and Concealer. The former comes in a wide variety of shades and lasts for a really long time. I was out for the whole night without needing to re-apply. The later provides the coverage I need while still looking natural.
