Red is one of the colours I've got most of in my wardrobe. I love this colour. Maybe it's to signalise that I'm not scared to be seen? Or maybe it is because I feel full of life in it? It is definitely a colour that gives me an energy and self confidence boost, and I think it's a mix of the above that makes me enjoy wearing red. Red is my go to colour on days I want a bit of an extra push or if the weather is really depressing.

With zips being everywhere as an accessory right now I was thrilled when I saw this dress from Simply Be*. It's a textured fit and flare dress and it's a perfect red colour.


I really like this dress. I wouldn't say I love it, but it's a very good all around fit and flare dress that can go with most things you're wearing. I like the length of it and the fabric has a lovely feel to it as it's kind of a waffle texture to it. I like it that it is sleeveless as well cause it just increases the way I can style it. I don't like it that the zip goes all the way up to under my chin, but this is more my personal preference since I like having an open chest. So for me this dress would have worked even better if the zip stopped a couple of inches down.

I've chosen three different styles to show you how easy you can make this dress to go from a casual day out for a walk outfit to a more night on the town look. So here we go.



 With this first look I've worn it as part of a casual walking outfit with a thick jumper and wellies. It looks effortless and cute.

For the second look I've chosen this.




 It's more of a going to a cafe with a friend look or even going to a gig. Added a stylish cropped denim jacket and some amazing animal print boots. Lots and lots of silver bangles just adds to the outfit.

Jacket from Navabi with lovely material.
