Valentine's Date Outfit With House Of Fraser

House of Fraser are running a Valentine's Day blogger competition on their blog this week. All you have to do is create your ideal Valentine's Date outfit and post it to your blog. You can find all of the details on how to enter here. 

Untold Tile Printed Dress, £85

Linea Weekend Faux Leather Biker Jacket, £75

Dew Sterling Silver Heart Alphabet Pendant, £20

Whistles Lucille Ankle Boot, £150

L.K. Bennett Genevra Skinny Belt, £65

Lulu Guinness Red Clear Lips Clutch Bag, £245

Stella McCartney Eau De Parfum, £69 (100ml)

Estée Lauder Pure Color Envy Sculpting Lipstick in Envious, £24

Nails Inc Victoria and Albert Polish, £11

As soon as I saw this dress I thought of Twin Peaks (not very romantic, I know) and I thought it was perfect for a casual Valentine's date. As it's still freezing I paired it with these gorgeous Whistles ankle boots and a faux leather jacket to make the outfit more casual. I added a skinny black patent belt to break up the pattern of the dress. Then I added pops of red with this perfect Lulu Guinness lips clutch (I am dying over how amazing this is!) and matching red lipstick and nail polish. I finished off the outfit with this cute heart initial necklace and my favourite evening scent, Stella by Stella McCartney. 

I don't have any plans this Valentine's day but I could totally see myself wearing this entire outfit for lots of different occasions. What do you think? Do you like any of my choices?

Do you have any Valentine's Day plans?

Fashion Getaways Blogger Challenge With House Of Fraser

When I heard that House of Fraser were running a Blogger competition to put together an outfit inspired by one of the most iconic fashion capitals I thought it would be fun to create an entry, also who wouldn't want to win a £200 House of Fraser voucher?

All you have to do is go to their site and create an outfit inspired by one of the following cities: London, Paris, Milan, New York or Tokyo and explain what you love about of the items. Then ask your readers to guess which city you've chosen.

Chanel Pirate Lipstick, £25
The outfit I've chosen is quite monochromatic so I wanted to add a bright red lip to make this daytime outfit a bit more special. Chanel Pirate is the perfect glamorous shade of red. 

Therapy Spot Woven Dress, £45
I chose this Therapy dress because it's a great price point and it's so versatile. It can be worn with tights, brogues and a trench coat (as shown above) during the day if it's a bit cold, with sandals for the warmer weather or with some classic black heels and a blazer for dinner or drinks in the evening. 

Office Lottie Shoes, £62
These brogues are perfect for wearing during the day as the stacked heel makes them more comfortable for walking around in. The cut-out is really on trend at the moment and makes them a little bit more modern and different than your usual pair of brogues.

Zatchels Barrel Cross Body Bag, £45
This black bag is perfect for sightseeing in any country, it's cross body so it's more secure and can fit just the right amount in it so that you're not weighed down. 

Cutie Trench Coat, £35
Trench coats are a great way to layer up in colder weather without feeling too bulky. This one is a little bit of a twist on the classic trench coat because of the cute layered skirt which also gives a great shape.

Libertine Yellow Gold Thorn Ring, £25
I wanted to keep the outfit quite simple and not add much jewellery. This gorgeous Libertine ring is a nice statement piece that adds some interest to the monochromatic outfit. 

Charnos Sheer Black Tights, £6

You can't be without a pair of sheer black tights when the weather is a bit chilly. These will look great against the pale shades of the dress and the trench coat.

You can find out all of the details on the House of Fraser Blog. 

So have you figured it out which city have I chosen? Let me know in a comment below!

Don't forget to tell me if you decide to enter the competition too so I can take a look at your outfit.
