Earlier on this afternoon, I was given a wonderful invitation to a party in London with my boyfriend which was completely out of the blue and incredibly exciting.
Normally, parties are planned ahead leaving you a while to fret over what to wear.
I went into absolute panic mode, chucked on the closest clothes to me and dashed over to Outfit which is the biggest lifesaving shop ever- slight exaggeration.
I really wasn't sure what I wanted to get, I haven't really been looking at things recently because I'm on a major spending ban so was going into Topshop with a completely open mind.
Being a huge lover of Cream dresses, I thought I'd play it safe and go with this dress, it was actually the first thing I picked up which was a result. The Topshop Cream Crepe Shirt Dress. It's really flattering and I like the material and the back detail. It was a little pricey at £46 but it was a last minute thing and I needed at least an option.
In terms of accessories, I really wasn't sure on whether I wanted to go girly or a be little bit edgy, so I decided to pick up a few different items and decide when I tried it all on at home. I'm not completely greedy and will be returning the one I don't wear- I personally think £10-£14 is quite a lot for "junk jewellery" as my mum calls it, and I certainly haven't got money to waste.
I really like the Topshop Pearl Bib Collar, but I'm all over spikes and things at the moment, and I think I will get more wear out of either the Miss Selfridge or Topshop Spikes.
What do you think? Do you like these little jewels I picked up?

The topshop spikes definitely make more of a statement, but I think the Miss Selfridge ones will be easier to style in everyday outfits :) Love all the jewelry, and the dress is gorgeous. Pale colour's just wash me out unfortunately :( Have fun at the party!x

love this styling, I love plain shirts/dresses that you can make your own. The pearl collar for me is the winner, looks classic & chic with a twist. xxx
