What you choose to spend the budget on really does depend on whether you are a dress or shoe person. This year I only have one formal do to go to the other is an annual stylists night out so that is another level when it comes to dressing! Luckily I do have enough in my now officially full wardrobe to select for both occasions, however if I had to choose I think I might go for a dress. There are two high street dresses I love based on their cut although they are top end in terms of high street pricing.
I have shoes to work with both these dresses (court or sandal style would suit) so the budget would go on either one - whichever suited best and was in stock. But of course if you are a shoe person then you can forgo the dress, choose a good pair of shoes to wear again and again. Taking my dress hat off, these pair of beauties would work with any dress.
How handy is a shoe called papparazzi especially when it is in the sale.
What would you choose if you could only pick one item - dress or shoe?
I love that FC dress. Claudia Winkleman looked fab in it on Strictly x
ReplyDeleteI do too - truly fab xx
DeleteHmmmm....would depend on what I had in my closet. If I had a good dress that could be made festive with the right shoes, I would go for the shoes. But if there is no dress....LOL. In reality, I'd do what I did in my just-out-of-school days, try to get both on sale!
ReplyDeleteI struggle to find good dresses for my size so I usually will pick a shoe instead. However if I could find a dress like those that you've picked out then I'd definitely be choosing a dress over shoes this year. xx
ReplyDeleteWhat size are you? Or more importantly shape - size is always an approximate. Bust, hips or tummy?
