Little White Dress + Gold Fascinator, an Easter Look

How’s this for a winning frock! And what better day to dress up in your Sunday’s best than Easter Sunday. 

THE DRESS
While it’s very tempting to go all pastels for Easter, the LITTLE WHITE DRESS season is upon us and we can’t ignore the fact that white is always a clean, fresh and stand out option. This amazing dress boasts an illusion bodice and loads of layers from the neckline to the gloved sleeves and the side.

It may be impractical for that Easter egg hunt but effortlessly takes you from service to brunch. The layers of frills turn up the wow factor of this already stunning dress. 

Thinking what’s next for this piece after an Easter debut? There’s a plethora of events that this will be appropriate for. Hello tea parties, cocktail parties, all white parties not to mention summer weddings!!

THE HAT
As you already know, I am a sucker for any kind of headgear. I did state in a recent post that I literally live in hats sometimes. From beanies, to fedoras, berets , boaters and church hats, I love them all. Well, maybe not a bonnet, Ha!

This gold number has my name written all over it. I love the drama and elegance of this fascinator hat from Nigeria based milliner Ure of Urezkulture. When I was sent this exotic gold fascinator as a birthday gift, I knew it’d be perfect for Easter. I was all kinds of right as it goes great with mu Little white dress. 

THE HAIR
While I’m not a bride, sweeping my hair up into an updo has become my new obsession. It’s a perfect option for when you want to dress up, go to a formal affair draped in a gorgeous gown and is a favorite hair style of brides. This one worked well and shows off the pretty neckline neckline of my dress perfectly.

Happy Easter guys! 
I hope you enjoy every minute of it. I’m home on Spring Break all week, just catching my breath!

To hat or not to hat? 
Fascinators have been enjoying a moment in fashion. Mounted on a clip, a head band, a pill box or an elastic strap, I am a huge fan of the fancy headgear. They are very popular at Summer weddings, Kentucky Derby and parties but who says you can't have a fabulous twisted piece of raffia finished with bold colored feathers dipping down low over one eye in the Winter? A perfect way to add a pop of color for that holiday party and most importantly feed 
my
  fascination with fascinators!

Speaking of weddings, fascinators like you know are quite popular with British royals and I can't wait to see the display of breathtaking fascinators at Meghan and Harry's wedding in May! Just like royal weddings past, it will be a case of old standing tradition meet opulence!


To answer the question like it's not obvious (eye roll) I chose to hat! This show stopping and unique creation is from another great milliner. It had just the right amount of oomph to elevate my look without giving out overkill vibes and made a perfect topper for my Sashes Couture maxi dress. 

I hope you all had a great Christmas. Here's wishing everyone a very Happy New Year 2K18!
