Girls night out look: Halston Heritage Dress + Shana London palm clutch

If SJP has been seen in it you know you're onto a winner! If you're adventurous try teaming it with a turban, á la Carrie Bradshaw in "Sex and the City 2". Personally, I'd pile on the gold to work it's Studio 54 style to the max! And what does every girl need on a night out? Statement shoes! Top off your 70s disco vibe by dancing the night away in super-high platforms (just don't forget the Party Feet!). Team up with the Shana London palm clutch!



 


Summer wedding look: Jasper Garvida dress + Harriet clutch in caramel

This gorgeous Jasper Garvida dress is just the right shade of pale for a wedding - luscious peach suits most skin tones and you're far enough away from cream/white to avoid upstaging the bride! Let the corsage do the talking and wear with simple accessories such as nude patent courts and one strong piece of jewellery. Perfect to wear with the Caramel Harriet Clutch from Wilbur and Gussie! 



 


Ball look: Zimmerman dress + Shana London Round Lizard clutch

Not only is it wedding season, prom season is also in full swing! This elegant silk maxi dress is sexy and glamorous yet still ladylike - perfect for maintaining your air of mystery. Another bonus? The flattering draping will hide the inevitable potbelly from your sit-down dinner! Shana London's evening bag is just big enough for your essentials.



 


Office meeting: Fendi dress + Sara Berman Sally Square clutch

In these austere times there's nothing wrong with working it in the office in order to get yourself noticed! Fendi's belted dress is in equal parts professional and fashionable, can be worn all year round if paired with opaque tights, and is easily dressed up for after-work drinks. Wear it with the Sara Berman Sally Square clutch for a perfect outfit!



 


Meeting the in-laws: Fendi dress + Wilbur and Gussie Harrier clutch in red

For this nerve-wracking experince you need to look both pretty and proper in order to be memorable for all the right reasons. Fendi's Painted Rose Dress is girly in all the right ways, without being too pink and/or frilly, and the length is spot-on for keeping it youthful without you feeling paranoid about your derrière being on show. It's practically perfect in every way, as will you be! Team up with a red clutch from Wilbur and Gussie Harrier!



 


Suzannah Dress + Wilbur and Gussie Clutch

A dress crafted out of gazar silk- what could be more luxurious! It is perfect for a flirty cocktail look, and would work just as well come autumn, just swap bare legs for opaques. And if it is accessories you are looking for, a metallic clutch like this one would do just the trick!



 


Melissa Odabash Dress + Martine Wester Earrings

You can’t really fault Melissa Odabash when it comes to doing sexy chic. This diamante strapped long evening dress is a case in point. In terms of the easy-to-wear factor I would give it a 10/10. I would find it irresistible not to pop on a bit of extra bling – these earrings are fab!
And the icing on the bling cake would be a cocktail ring- ice-tastic!



 
             


Ruth Tarvydas Dress

Loving the feathery shoulder detailing on this creation.  I would wear it if I really wanted to impress, or if I knew I was likely to bump into an ex!  I would up the ante with some attention-grabbing accessories, like this Blaguette multi-coloured cuff , some cute drop earrings (not too long to distract from the feathers!) or a Bex Rox bracelet

Herve Leger Dress + Blaguette Earrings

For some reason this dress is crying out for me to take it on holiday. Think it’s the sporty appeal of the halter neck cut and the vibrancy of the colours. The whole thing just invites you to go abroad and get a tan! Would look great on the beach for the day, and equally fabulous with a black blazer and wedges for evening. I would add some matching earrings for evening too.




 


Ruth Tarvydas Dress + Shana London Bag

I get the impression that, on putting on this dress, I would just melt into a dreamy candy-floss hued world where everything was lovely! I have already worn this dress to an awards ceremony and it would look great for a girly night out, or to an al fresco summer party, perhaps with a metallic clutch, just to toughen the look slightly. I like the kooky appeal of this round lizard skin one it looks less obvious pared with such an ‘out-there’ dress.
