Cobalt and Floral Occasions

Wednesday

Typically, when I see many of my day-to-night outfits they are in solid colours, or with layers, and even in the form of a Little Black Dress. But, this time, I wanted to mix things up. I needed a complete outfit that would be appropriate for a presentation as well as cocktail hour and late-night dinner plans.

Versatility and extreme comfort was going to be essential in the style decision, because it was a day that I could not be hindered by heaps of things to carry or assemble (style-wise).
I thought this print was perfect—it has a bold and electric cobalt colouring, yet also a silhouette flattering enough to work for the office and a night on the town. Adding a blazer to this dress also gave me the option for daytime, because I am often cold inside the workspace, hence my scarf obsession. However, not one scarf was required for this ensemble.

Fortunately, this was a dress that needn’t many accessories; therefore, all I added was earrings to complete this look. When you have a long day scheduled ahead, do you have favourite styles that are easy to transform to night? 
What do you think of my day-to-night look?

Special thanks to everyone for your lovely responses on my last post, I ended up using both the chocolates and mini-grooming tools inside the moustache boxes.

*Lastly, I am in the process of shifting several things around, both professionally and personally, including getting caught up with blogs, etc. But, I do have a few special things to share with you very soon. Do bear with me, check out Bloglovin’ and Instagram (see below). I will make my way to reading your lovely spaces soon. 
The goods: Floral printed dress, and Insect drop earrings-c/o Oasap, Heels-Seychelles.

  1. Dear Madison, I get you well, when it comes to day to night outfits, Im the same, always choose something in black, a lbd first. But you did so well to dare with colors and try something printed even for night, that dress is super cute and flatters you, looking gorgeous!:) I like the earrings too. Have a nice week you too, baci! xo

    That dress is fabulous, the perfect frock to see you through from evening to night. How horrid that your office is so cold, air conditioning used to make me so miserable at work. xxx

    This print and the color alone are just fab. Great choice for versatility, just adding make-up or other shoes will do the trick.

    Liebe Madison, wie wunderschön Du in Deinem tollen Kleid aussiehst! Mir gefällt die Länge, der Schnitt und das Muster so gut an Dir <3 Ich muss ganz selten mein Outfit vom Tag in ein Abendoutfit umstylen, da ich zwar jeden Wochentag arbeite, aber danach nur ganz selten ausgehe :) Ich wünsche Dir einen tollen Start ins Wochenende!

    Alles Liebe von Rena
