' Spanish Lights '

Dress - H&M

I've had this loud one shouldered number hanging in my closet for five or so months now. Even though the weather has been incredibly warm recently I was still a little wary to wear this out as I guess I'd pick this dress out for a holiday and actually I was going to take it to Florida but I have so many clothes and with my wedding outfit and all I had to downsize the amount of items I was taking. I love this dress though and the story in the title is that the colors and the print remind me of bright city lights, and the one shouldered top with the frill reminds me of what flamenco dancers wear in Spain.

Going into the detail, I guess you could argue the fact that it isn't actually 'one shouldered' due to the thin spaghetti style strap on the other side, but its hardly noticeable with all the detail and frill going on. In the torso area it is elasticated, I always tend to wear a belt with dresses that have this, so my black leather belt with a silver round buckle worked as its pretty simple and with the dress being so vibrant I didn't want any accessories to be fussy.

Belt - Tkmaxx

Bag - River Island

Boots - Charlotte Rouse

Ring - Pilgrim

To show off the detail up top, I swept my hair up in a messy ponytail. I was ages picking out the right pair of shoes to go with this outfit (maybe because I have so many) but again I didn't want anything to loud or to detailed because of the dress. The shoe boots are from Charlotte Rouse and I got them over in America, the monochrome worked ell with the dress and the fact they are shoe boots toned it down for a summer style look over here in England .

The Best Brights: Think LOUD, think PROUD!!!

Don't be afraid and don't have a boring washing line full of muted dark colors. Go for it and add lots of color to your wardrobe. Summers still hanging on so make the most of it, and if your lucky to be going away on a late deal treat yourself to some bold colorful fun clothes to stand out in your holiday snaps!
