On Sunday one of my oldest and closest friends tied the knot. I absolutely love weddings and knew I wanted to wear something that little bit more glam for this special day. In turkish weddings, we tend to go all out, especially if it's someone that you're close to.
I knew I wanted something long and being 5ft9 it's really hard to buy long dresses off of the highstreet. It's something that I have always struggled with. I'd found so many BEAUTIFUL dresses, but when it came to the length, they were just swinging around my ankles ( and not in a good way). So when I went to London Fashion Weekend I saw this short lady trying this dress on and thought, 'there's a lot of extra length on the floor, it must be a really long dress' so I waited to try it on.
And I'm so happy that I did. When I walked out the changing room to have a look in the mirror, I saw this shopper literally gasp, and she said that it looked amazing... naturally, if someone gasps when you walk out a changing room, you buy the dress!
The dress is a blue black and I decided to team it with a pair of pink/purple shoes as I felt that it would really bring the colour of the dress out.
Can we just talk about this Bottega Veneta clutch for a second. MMMM! Obsessed. Please can I keep it forever!
This is just a styling shoot, for the wedding I went and had my hair put in a rather glam up do. If you would like to see pictures of how my hair was on the wedding, or the bride check out my Instagram here.
How would you have styled this dress?
Come say hey on social media
