OOTD: Red Jumpsuit

This Gabby’s Red Frill Detail Jumpsuit landed at my doorstep some days ago and I am so in love with it. I am not a massive jumpsuit wearer. I only have a couple in my wardrobe but I always admire them on others, and I love the few I got! There is something super dressy and stylish about jumpsuits. They are great for night outs and occasions where you have to play dress up.

I had the golden opportunity to select pieces from the Party Dresses category on Quiz Clothing website, and this lovely red piece was on my list. I was selected to take part in the Style it like Gabby collaboration and I was drawn to the bright colour and style of the dress, from the Gabby collection. Quiz have recently launched a collection with Love Island’s Gabby and this stylish jumpsuit is one of the amazing pieces from the collection.

This red jumpsuit is spot on! It is perfect for a great night out. I found the fabric really comfy. The detail to front, thin straps and frill hem trousers look amazing. I will be wearing the hell out of this piece.

At first, I was a bit worried about the length of the jumpsuit. I thought it would be too long but it turned out great.

I also like the fact that this jumpsuit is super easy to style. All I needed was a pair of heels and a blazer, and I was good to go. It is one of those pieces you can just put on without thinking too much.

I took some shots indoors without the black blazer, so you can see the entire look. I couldn’t brave these shots outside. It was so chilly on that day. How is the weather at your end?

What do you do with the wedding dress after the wedding

The wedding dress is always the centre of attention. From the day of the planning to the day of the ceremony, it is the one piece that is one most fussed about. Every little detail of the wedding dress has to be perfect.But when the wedding is all done and dusted, what then happens to the wedding dress? Sadly, that glamorous wedding dress gets locked up in the closet. The good news is that there are so many things you can do with your wedding dress.

Here are a few ideas.

 

Keep the wedding dress

I thought I’d start with most obvious. Keeping the wedding dress is what most women do once the wedding is over. They do this with the hope that they can pass on the dress to their female children and turn it into a lasting tradition.

Although this is a nice way to keep memorable event alive, your daughters or future daughter in-laws may not want to wear your old wedding dress. Almost every bride wants their dress to be marvelous and most especially reflect what is trendy during the time.

 

Sell it

Yes, this may be a little difficult for some women to do, since they put in a lot of time and effort picking their wedding dress. So there is some sentimental value attached to it. Wedding dresses can be a little expensive depending on the brand and design. So if you sell it, you are most likely to recover about 50 percent of what you invested originally.

For the record, I sold my dress weeks after my wedding. I had a few people interested in buying it, and I just went for the highest bidder.

Re-design it

You’d be surprised at how much could be done with a wedding gown. With a very good tailor, it can be re-designed into a beautiful outfit that you can wear to other events.

The flowing material can be used to make a lovely dress that you can use for formal occasions and still keep the memories of your wedding alive. You can also turn it into cute little dresses for your children.

 

Rent it

Who would have thought that you can turn your old wedding gown into a profitable stream of income? There are many ladies who would have liked the exact wedding dress but do not have the money to buy it. You can simply start renting out your wedding dress to brides who are looking to rent the ideal dress for their special day.

 

Donate it

There are so many ladies out there who are unable to afford the dress of their dreams for their wedding. You can do a great service by donating your old wedding gown to them.

OOTD – Autumn Street Style

I have not posted an outfit post in a while. I was called out the other day by a reader, and I realised I have seriously neglected my personal style category on Fashion and Style Police. There is really no excuse. It is down to pure laziness but I promise to be better. My focus has been on writing, but I need to remember the big picture. Outfits are a huge part of the big picture. So with that out-of-the-way, say hello to my latest outfit post – Autumn Street Style.

I got this colourful kaftan while holidaying in Oman in the summer. I wore it for the first time some days ago, and I love how comfy it is. It is one size, and has an adjustable belt, which is so handy. I have fallen in love with this kaftan. I wish I got a few more. It is great for the autumn season too!

Everything else I have on is an Oldie but a Goldie. I don’t shop all the time but when I do, I like to buy quality, and this is because I think it is cheaper in the long run to buy quality pieces and accessories. They last longer, which works for me. I don’t have the money or time to keep shopping every season. So I rather spend that more on an expensive pair of jeans or shoes, than a cheap version, only to have it fall apart after a few wears.

I  loving autumn so far. It is getting colder, especially in the mornings and at night, but our heating isn’t on yet, so I guess it isn’t that bad. I am also looking forward to the layering trend; the boots, tights, scarves and light layers rocks my style world.
