Elegance Revisited

Pink Dress: Posh

pink dress

And the pink dress is back…

…and looking very posh indeed. I mean, who wouldn’t want to look posh? I certainly have those days when I want to look like a million (insert your choice of currency here) as that’s as close as I can ever hope to come to that particular dream…
So, this here is my posh, unashamedly fake rich bitch look for the final part of the 3-part series featuring this pink dress.

tailored dress

Unlike the retro look and the glamour look, this one requires a change of accessories. A classic bag and a conservative jacket together with a streamlined dress give this look a more ‘expensive vibe’.

But, I think it’s the shoes that give me away: I should have gone for something muted, maybe taupe or another non-colour, with a much higher heel. And that’s the difference between fake posh and the real thing: if you’re really posh, you don’t need to walk anywhere and can wear uncomfortable shoes…

I am wearing:

dress: L.K.Bennett (old) / jacket: Andiata (old) /shoes: Clarks / bag: Chanel /

sunglasses: Chanel / ear rings: Thomas Sabo

So, now I’ve shown you 3 different looks featuring this pink dress. And I’m going to add a 4th one: I featured this dress last summer. However, I don’t think it’s a dress for summer: as it’s fully lined, it’s way too hot.

So, just the 3 recent looks:

retro style

Which one is your favourite?

      I've worn the first look most often, usually to work as it's somehow the most accessible. But I'm starting to think that I should go for bigger and bolder looks…

    All 3 pairings are great in their own way, but my favorite is the second one. It's elegant and suits you the best. You do elegant wear really well Tiina. Also, wear pink more!

      I think the second one is also my favourite, I love elegant looks but never thought I could do it myself… and pink… lately so many people have been telling me that pink or fuchsia is 'my colour', they must be onto something.

      Thanks, Alice. I've often worn a fitted dress and a cardi to work, but I've never worn this dress to work. Maybe I should try it…
