A change in season is always a big deal, as far as fashion is concerned, because we fashion lovers get to rearrange our wardrobe and usher in pieces for the new season. I love spring because it has the perfect temperature, not too warm or too cold, but it is the endless rain that comes along with it, I don’t like too much. I also love the fact that I can still layer up light pieces in spring. This weather makes styling outfits a lot of fun.
This black dress by Accessorise is a lovely addition to my spring wardrobe. It is a Lace Insert Tassel Maxi Dress and it is my only maxi dress at the moment, not had one in ages. This versatile piece is the perfect maxi dress. It creates an effortlessly chic look, and the elasticated waistband with adjustable tasselled ties, means the sizing is quite flexible too, which is great for petite ladies.
I love the fact that this piece is so easy to style up with a jacket and high heels like I have done here, or dress down with flats for a walk on a beach.
Speaking of beaches, I am badly in need of a proper holiday. It feels like I havn’t had one in ages. In an ideal situation, I would want to visit Dubai again. I visited the beautiful country some years ago and it was the best holiday I ever had, followed closely by my Miami holiday. The issue is, flights are so expensive these days, it is almost impossible to go away nice, so I always end up visiting a country in EU, but let’s see how it goes, fingers and toes crossed. Do you have any holidays planned for the year? Where are you off to?
What do you think of this outfit? Drop me a comment, let’s chat.

I have seriois holiday withdrawal too… I’ve been checking get online almost everyday, but flights are expensive as you mentioned, and our weak SA currency doesn’t help either. 😢
I have been doing the exact same thing. Oh well. Thanks for stopping by x
Gorgeous dress. I didn’t realise accessorise sold clothing, I’ll have to pop in for a look next time I’m in town.
Hi Daniella, sorry to hijack this thread but Accessorize is part of monsoon and they often intertwined, if that make sense. xx

The outfit is lovely, I love that I can still layer in Spring, although it’s a little more rainy than I’d like it. I’m incredibly lucky though that I have a few holidays/ mini breaks to look forward to x
I have mini breaks too but no proper out of EU holiday booked yet. Thanks Rhian x

Fab dress. You look great. My favourite fashion season is now. I love the fresh feel of the spring and summer coming in.
I’d love to say I have a holiday planned and something to look forward to. Unfortunately I don’t. It will be something off the cuff and totally unplanned, as and when. But sometimes I like doing it that way better.
I have an Aunt in Dubai right now, the photos are stunning.
Thank you. Dubai is a beautiful country. I envy your aunt x
