Belfast Fashion Week - Show Report & What I Wore!

Knowing I was going to be attending the Belfast Fashion Week High Street show on Friday night, I was keeping an eye out for a great dress to wear, so when I spotted this one in the M&S sale, I snapped it up!
Dress
And all was fine until I tried it on the night before BFW…but found the length quite frumpy on a my 5'6" frame. So I cut off the black piece on the bottom and this is how it looked on me. Thanks to Stephen Potter for taking this photo on the night!
I had a great night at the show (and afterwards!). It featured lots of affordable stylish pieces from The Outlet at Banbridge, Benetton, Debenhams, French Connection, Marks & Spencer and George at Asda to name just a few. I'll be featuring some of them on the blog in coming weeks as I think they will be perfect for styling up the school run over the winter. Here's a selection of pictures from the night also supplied by Stephen Potter: 
LK Bennett at The Outlets @ Banbridge 
Benetton
Outfit from M&S, Armani, Edinburgh Woollen Mill and Daniel Footwear at The Outlet @ Banbridge

Dorothy Perkins Purple Dress
It was another fantastic show - thank you and well done to Cathy Martin and the team at CMPR who have earned themselves a few days off to recover!
We're talking coats on the blog tomorrow - by request is back again…see you then :)

    Excellent idea to shorten the dress - it's the difference between sassy and frump! Look forward to the talk on coats - I love love love coats. I feel the cold a lot.
