‘Oh wow!’ Is pretty much the exact exclamation that exited my mouth when I spotted this Elie Saab dress, below. Like seriously. Now, I’m quite partial to the blue dressy dress. Blue dresses can be worn to so many different occasions – weddings, engagements, work, a night out, baptisms, hens parties…navy blue is one colour that doesn’t offend at any occasion, and it’s super flattering.
So with that, I bring you today’s aspirational vs affordable: the blue lace dress. Now I know nothing will match up to the gorgeousness of this couture piece, but this super affordable number has the same shift style and is a gorgeous shade of navy. Plus, it has bell-end sleeves. Yes.
