Newsflash! It's an outfit post!

Special occasions always mean a new outfit, and lucky for me I got just that for a family occasion recently. The outfit, which had been planned meticulously for several weeks, was what I would consider very 'trendy' , when compared with what I would usually wear.
Points of note:
Ribbed tights are the coolest and easiest way to update a dress, and even more so if they are coloured.
Purple is the colour of the season. Fabulous too for occasions, as it is rich, royal and uber luxurious.
I think most regular readers will know, that I am quite frankly obsessed with super sized clutches. They are opulent and glamorous; two adjectives I love!
Black patent heels, always in style and can be worn with everything.
Tuxedo Jacket, well if Sienna's wearing it, the Olsen twins are wearing it, and Kate loves them, then that's good enough for me!
The outfit -

Dress: French Connection Jacket: Bershka Bag: Warehouse Tights: Oasis Shoes: Faith

A little bit of inspiration was found in this fabulous picture from the September edition of Vogue UK. I just love the purple and sequins combination, which in my opinion, makes the outfit sumptuous and even regal.

Purple, perfect for opulent glamour
