Whilst the overall colour scheme of this skirt and top combination is somewhat muted, the cut and soft cotton fabrics of both garments give this look a touch of 1950s glamour. Accessorised with a belted leather bag and some vintage shaped sunglasses, the wedged emblazoned trainers offers some street-style modernity.

Maintaining a luxurious evening style look through the deep blue velvet tones layered across it, this dress is perfect for day or night. Cinched in at the waist, this look flatters the figure whilst the movement developed adds an extra element of feminine fun.
