OOTN: Sequins & Lace

Tags: , , , , , , ,

Hey my lovelies,

I got exciting parcel last week which had some amazing goodies from Matalan. I have been waiting for these items since I saw them at their press day in July, and now I finally had them in my possession! I’ve been happy to see that Matalan has brought more glam stuff to their Rogers & Rogers collection, like the amazing shirt you’ve seen in my posts lately.. and these pretties.


Sequin jacket: 24, Matalan | Dress: 24, Matalan – sold out online, still available in store (similar) | Shoes: borrowed from flatmate (similar) | Headband: Forever 21 | Lippy: Accessorize, Coral Crush With Love

I’m in love with these, seriously, I need a party to go to! Both the dress and the jacket are a bit too big for me, but it isn’t that noticeable, right? So that just means that the items are true to size, since I’m usually 22. I can’t believe that the jacket’s retail price is £25, since it doesn’t look cheap at all! The dress costs £28, which is a steal as well. Both of them look and feel much more luxurious than what their price tags suggest, I’m totally impressed :). My only negative thought is that the belt in the dress is intact, and that you can only tighten it one way (one strand on each side), since I’d love to wear this dress with other belts too. This fact definitely doesn’t stop me from loving this dress though, no way. Both of these items are available in sizes 18-30, so be sure to check out your nearest store!

The dress & jacket were gifted to me by Matalan for a review, but the comments and opinions are entirely my own.

    This is precisely why companies should work with Bloggers. I need an inexpensive outfit for Christmas, am a size 20-22 and would not have thought of Matalan.

    Those pieces are stunning, affordable and you look great in them, hope I can do them justice too!

      That’s so true!!! I have seen so many things on bloggers that I would have never even thought about.

      Run to your nearest Matalan, get them, and ROCK THEM :)! I totally want to see a pic though! xx

    Oh. My. God.

    I MUST HAVE that jacket! It’s absolutely beautiful. Stunning outfit all round.
    Absolutely dying to get my hands on the jacket. It screams Christmas! Well done Matalan! xx

    they look really fab – I love the sleeves of the dress on you and the jacket is such a bargain. Also, you look so radiant in these pics – please tell me that is a magic blusher and not just your general gorgeousness?

    • Hanna says: October 13, 2012 8:17 AM

      Thank you Gemma :)))! Sorry, it is my natural red cheeks, only makeup in these pics is eyeliner, mascara and lippy.. it was a bit chilly and that just happened. I usually HATE that, so it’s good to hear that others don’t ;). xx
