When it comes to buying a new party dress, I am not really one for wearing sparkle and glitz. Every time I have bought a sparkly dress for Christmas it invariably ends up sitting in my wardrobe for a year until I get it out the next Christmas and decide I need something new.
This year for New Year's Eve I wanted to find a party dress that had a wow factor but that I would still be able to wear to other parties and functions throughout the year. Enter the beautiful Briar Rose Dress from Taking Shape
The dress is true to size and is 43" in length. The attention to detail with the finishing of this dress for me what takes it over the edge into special. The mesh cowl neck insert with beading into the v neck and the way that the belt is stitched in order to create a perfect bow without having to try; I love it.
I am wearing the dress with some sparkly heels from +Simply Be (I did give in to sparkle a little) and my gorgeous rose quartz necklace from +Joshua James Jewellery which I reviewed here
I cannot wait to wear this dress when I go out for New Years Eve. I feel elegant and sophisticated in it and with the lovely swoosh this dress gives when you do a twirl, I may even take to the dancefloor!
