Morning ladies after my previous post featuring dresses to wear for special occasions (see here), as promised today we're looking at separates. Pieces that if you're not a dress wearer or likely to have another event that calls for a more dressier outfit will mean you can dress down for everyday by pairing with existing items to maximise the cost per wear & get your full monies worth.
I've put together an edit of the best separates currently on the high street & as always just click on any particular item for further details.
And whilst you might think that some of the skirts featured may be too much for a normal day - just imagine them dressed down with a simple crew neck jumper/'V' neck tee, trainers & a biker/denim jacket & you really can make them fit your lifestyle. The same goes for the trousers & culottes featured & of course all of the tops would look stunning worn with a simple pair of jeans & flat sandals or paired with heels for a night out.

I'm still debating which way to go for Ladies Day - a dress is so easy & means you only have to worry about your accessories whereas separates will certainly get more wear & you'd have to be really unlucky to see anyone in the same combination! Decisions, decisions & not long to go to decide!
Although not a decision I have to decide on today so I'm throwing together some blues with a pair of skinny cropped green trousers that I grabbed in the sales.
Biker Jacket - Massimo Dutti
Shirt - Uniqlo
Trousers - J Crew
Trainers - J Crew
- SHOP MY STYLE -
Shirt - Mango
Trousers - Marks & Spencer
Trainers - Marks & Spencer
So ladies anyone have a particular preference? Are you a dress wearer for special events & if it doesn't get much wear afterwards you'll make the decision to cut your losses & re-sell on? Or are you someone who likes to get their monies worth so will only buy a dress they can definitely re-wear or failing that go for separates that can be worked a different way? Perhaps you've got a special occasion coming up & needing inspiration or maybe you've already got your outfit sorted.
As always I'd love to hear your thoughts.
Happy 'hump' day lovelies - only 2 more sleeps until the weekend whoop whoop :-)
Enjoy your day & I'll be back as always tomorrow.
