Desk to Drinks Challenge With House Of Fraser:
Desk to Drinks Challenge With House Of Fraser. Last week House Of Fraser asked me, if I would like to take part in a fun fashion outfit challenge. Share an outfit that can be dressed down for the office and yet can also be styled up for a night out: The Desk To Drinks Challenge. (Just in case you go out then out out!!).
As part of the fun challenge, I got to choose one of their beautiful prom dresses to share how I would style it. It just so happens I am looking for a new job so a nice dress for work and after work drinks with friends would be perfect. How pretty is this dress? Great for dressing up or down, don’t you think so too?
I picked out a lovely plain cream dress, with 50’s styled cars. One that would not stand out too much, blending in nicely for work. It would have also looked great for a night out with chunky blue shoes to stand out a bit more. For some reason on ordering, I forgot to select the car pattern. Doh, what am I like!?
When my dress arrived then it was a big surprise as it was not one I thought I ordered. Haha. At first, I thought; Oh no! Oh, no, no, no, no!!
This dress will be too loud for a work themed post. House of Fraser kindly offered me an exchange, even though it was my fault, but I decided to stay with this dress as I realised how lovely it was.
It could be me after all!?
I would just need to tone it down for work and only wear some nice heels for drinks.Easier than I first thought!?
From Desk:
Firstly, I styled the dress with a black cardigan and low heeled boots.
It would look great in an office with a black blazer and black flat shoes, which are next on my shopping list.
It looks lovely dressed down for work.
To Drinks:
This dress is so pretty and loud I think it looks best with plain shoes or sandals.
Black, white, orange or red would be perfect. I went for red.
So what do you think of my outfit ideas? How would you also style this dress from desk to drink?
Desk to Drinks Challenge With House Of Fraser:
Love it with my red shoes.
I was sent this dress from House of Fraser. All thoughts are my own. I was not paid for this post. Thanks for supporting the brands that I work with.

Firstly, Oasis Chelsea Floral Skater Dress: House Of Fraser. Everyone appreciates a fun night out. My two oldest children are bursting with tales of wild nights out, proms, and endless parties! When I was in school, there was never anything like to a prom! The only thing was a roller disco or a school dance under teacher supervision!
Proms were only mentioned in movies like Grease that I can recall. It is a huge phenomenon with American influences, similar to trick-or-treating during Halloween. As far as we are concerned, that is not a terrible thing because my older Boys both have happy recollections of their school prom nights.
My youngest children like trick-or-treating. I was kindly approached by House of Fraser to review one of their prom dresses Oasis Chelsea Floral Skater Dress.

A Ladies Tank Top For All Seasons:
Last But Not Least, A Ladies Tank Top For All Seasons. Womenโs tank top UK. Even on a budget, I think you can be sustainable. Take this tank top I brought off the high street in Winter. I wore it in Winter, Spring and I think it will be great with nothing underneath and shorts in summer and a nice short-sleeved t-shirt in Autumn. Donโt you think so too?
This is a great womenโs tank top for layering, each season. I am so looking forward to wearing it in summer with my long maxi dresses too. I love that it is a knitted tank top too so it keeps me nice and warm.ย A Ladies Tank Top For All Seasons. So cosy.
Thank you so much for stopping by.
Lovely dress. I like it with the boots.

That is a gorgeous dress, even if it wasn't the print you thought you ordered! I like it layered with the cardi for the office, and it's fantastic with the red heels for drinks!Away From The Blue Blog

Aww, thank you Natasha ๐
It's a really lovely dress, but I would totally wear it for work without covering it up with the cardie. I rarely wear anything that is not a bright colour or two, or three though so my colleagues are used to it!I love how a simple change like shoes can totally transform a look. (love your red shoes btw!)
