Ways To Wear: Blue H&M Dress #3

For my final look I thought I'd keep it quite simple. To show just how versatile this dress is, this look is based around a date night / night out. As the blue is quite bold, I have kept everything else plain and black, with a tiny hint of gold from the collar necklace. I'm really liking the combination of the vibrant blue with the rich gold! I didn't think a belt was necessary because the jacket added shape, and without a belt it seems more 'night out'. I think this outfit is perfect for a date night because I'd feel quite confident in the bright blue, and then the dainty golden collar necklace softens the outfit.

Ways To Wear: Blue H&M Dress #2

For my second look, I decided to go really girly which works really well with the lightweight, floaty fabric of the dress. The peter pan collar is actually a top underneath, I just pulled the collar over, pretty handy huh? I feel like this dress needs a belt as it's not too fitted around the waist, so I used this cute woven plait belt, it's great in the summer. And what outfit wouldn't be complete without a Crown & Glory headpiece? I bought this one a while ago, and it's perfect for adding a pretty, girly touch to any outfit. I simply love wearing any sort of flowers in my hair!

Ways To Wear: Blue H&M Dress #1

I bought this dress from H&M when I was in London dropping off my portfolio at Central Saint Martins (fingers crossed!) I thought the colour was quite daring and a little bit different for me, but I've been on the lookout for a long sleeve skater dress, and as it was in the sale I decided to go for it, even if the dip hem isn't the most flattering for my short legs. Another thing I liked about it was how versatile it is, which is why I'm going to be doing a few posts on different ways to wear this dress.

Look 1 - Studs and Collars

Grey beanie - River Island / Studded shirt - Ever Ours / Studded belt - New Look / Black brogues - Clarks / Deer and owl rings - Internacionale / Love ring - Dorothy Perkins / Scrabble ring - Ebay

This look is quite edgy, and I probably should have worn heels. I'm not sure about the hat, it would have been better without the pompom! I'll be posting some more looks pretty soon, so watch out :)
