OOTN featuring Fashion Union

A few weeks ago the lovely Fashion Union sent me a sample of their Blue Wrap Over Chiffon Dress! I've been dying for a chiffon wrap over dress for a while now and jumped at the opportunity. It's a lovely dark cobalt with a plunging v-neck and detailed sleeves. One problem I suffered with this dress is the length of the V at the front, as I am young I presumed it would be too inappropriate to blog and or wear so I sewed up a tiny bit at the front which made the dress look totally more sophisticated.

As the dress is a bold colour I didn't want to dress it up with too much jewellery so I threw on a pair of statement shoes with rose gold detailing, a bow and a peep toe. The dress itself is lovely, the quality is absolutely fab! The dress comes with a slip underneath so it's not see-through. The sleeves are one of my favourite parts. It doesn't come across in the photo but the sleeves are slightly ruched (gathered together) to make an almost puffy sleeve but only from wear the neck joins the shoulders. It's synched at the waist, making it very feminine on the body as it makes out your curves. As the front of the dress has a lot of detail, I kept my hair simple in a natural half-up/half-down style with simple makeup, featuring a dewy look and golden eyes.
