Christmas Day Outfit

Earrings - Swarovski
Lipstick - MaxFactor
Necklace - Swarovski
Dress - New Look 

This year I spent Christmas Day with my family and boyfriend at my parent's house. My family like to dress up for Christmas Day as it's such an important religious holiday for us, so I decided to buy a new dress specially for it!

I chose this stunning skater dress from New Look. I basically never go into New Look any more, at 21 I feel I've outgrown it and prefer more chic brands such as Zara. I happened to spot this as I was walking past though and thought it was ideal. It's high enough at the front and just long enough short skirt (almost hitting the knees) to be modest enough to wear for my grandparents whilst being attractive and fitted enough to look good enough in front of my boyfriend.

I absolutely LOVE the lace design on this! That's what really made it stand out for me. All too often you find a dress with a gorgeous back or a stunning front but a boring, undesirable other side, ruining the whole dress. This finally has the best of both! It's a wonderful flowery lace design with a very attractive trim (edging).
It's the perfect combination of casual yet sleek, sophistication and elegance.

Lipstick - Max Factor
Necklace - Swarovski
Ring - Swarovski
Dress - New Look

I completed the look with minimal, natural make-up but bright Max Factor red lipstick. Max Factor do great lipstick that lasts all day (even though big Chrismas meals!), though do be careful as it can easily go on your teeth if you don't blot well enough. I then curled my hair and styled it to the side so that the full effect of the dress' design can be shown off.

What did you wear for Christmas Day? Send me your blog links, I'd love it see!

Merry Christmas! xoxo
