My work's party dresses

The work's party

 

Yipee! Friday was my last day at work until 3rd January! I haven't had such a long break in years, so I am super excited. It was also the evening of our work's party. Ian doesn't normally go in for the party, but as one of my closest friends, Jo, has joined the company, she was organising it, so we thought we'd get a babysitter and head out for the night.

Jo had made a special effort and had her hair dyed a lovely chocolate colour and put up in a stylish side do. I very rarely do anything with my hair, it is one area that I am very scared about changing. I have had the same hair since I was about 13. 

We decided to make a bit of an effort, as two mummys , it is a rare that we get the chance.

Jo and I tried to have our picture taken on several occasions, but couldn't keep a straight face. I'm not sure if it was because we felt a little daft, or the fact this was after several hours of drinking!

Jo's dress

Jo wore this stunning, classic red Yumi lace dress. This has been extremely popular. I think it's due to the flattering shape and length. It elegantly reaches the knees(except on Jo as she is mega tall!) and discreetly covers the tops of the arms. The festive colour makes it perfect as a Christmas dress.

My dress

I wore this grey Little Mistress dress with silver detail around the halter neck. It has subtle layers down the dress. I am a big fan of halter necks. I think they show off the best of your decolletage. I had fake tanned up, so bravely showed my skin off! The dress is fitted and not too short, but I still wore it with black tights and Kurt Geiger ankle shoes.
