MBFWA – Day 5 outfit

I was sent a few amazing things from my favourite New Zealand designer The Carpenters Daughter & decided I HAD to wear this dress. It’s just so gorgeous in person, in fact, Dani liked it so much she tried it on too. After having to get it taken up slightly came the hard decision of “What should I wear underneath!?”. At one stage I ended up telling my mother I was just going to go in my underwear.

My black slip just felt to bland, so when I found this purple short slip under one of my other dresses, I instantly knew, that’s it! Originally I had planned to wear my black bra, but it kept popping out and well, didn’t look the best, so I asked what Dani thought about the pink. I think the peek of pink showing kind of tied in with the other pink details of the outfit. It made it look like it was all part of the outfit, rather then ‘oh, your bra is showing’.

• DRESS – c/o The Carpenters Daughter ‘Partee Dress in Navy‘
• PETTICOAT – From some other random dress.
• BRA – Slimform from Best & Less
• SHRUG – City Chic
• BELT – ASOS Curve
• SHOES – A store in New Zealand

A trusted little shrug over the top to add more colour, and to cover my arms. Yeah, my arms are still one thing i’m learning to love about myself. Plus, as we were out pretty late on Friday it helped provide a litttttle bit of warmth. Oh, and of course a belt to define my waist a little. I also had strands of sequins in my hair, which you can kind of make out.
