I’m always looking for a special occasion to pull out an extra special dress and put on some bright lipstick. But wedding season has been at an all time low this year since so many of my friends are just on the baby train at this point in their lives. Luckily, I’ll find any reason to splurge on a dress for date night. No matter if you’re heading to the theatre or out for a nice dinner or just out for a fancy late night cocktail, there is always an excuse to feel your best in an ultra special look!
Whenever a special event comes up, I instantly go to Nordstrom and look to three separate brands that I know will always make me feel my best. Alice + Olivia, Ted Baker and Eliza J are three brands that always make me feel feminine and fit my shape so well. Whenever I slip on a dress or skirt by any three of these brands, I instantly feel more confident in my skin!
When I went on the hunt for an extra special date night look, I found this Peplum Fit & Flare Dress by Alice + Olivia and instantly fell in love. I love a dress that shows off a little leg and this dress is the perfect pairing with its white underskirt accompanied by the black pleated skirt on top. So even though you’re showing off some leg in the front, you’re still feeling covered and comfortable in the back. No constantly pulling at this dress, it fits like a dream!

And with every special event look, there must be the perfect accessory. And as we all know, shoes are seriously the best. What is it about a pair of shoes that can completely change around a bad day? Well, these Vince Camuto studded pumps create a modern spin on a classic heel. When you put them on, they demand a second look. And guess what?! They’re 25% off right now!
And to finish this whole look, I found this adorable Ted Baker bow clutch. When I slip on a little black dress, I always love a pop of red lipstick and this red clutch tied the entire look together! And this clutch comes in all sorts of other colors like blue and a shimmery pink!

I totally agree with you about Ted Baker – I wore one of their dresses as my wedding dress in April! I wanted something colourful and flattering. Their cut always seems to suit my petite (5 ft 3 inch), curvy frame.
they are so cute!
God you’re stunning!
