Oh you fancy!

When planning for a special occasion, what lady can say that the planning of her outfit is not just as important as the venue, or guest list, or even perhaps even the menu?

The occasion at hand just a few weeks ago was my boyfriend's 24th birthday. I knew I wanted to take him somewhere nice - as culinary connoisseurs, we both appreciate a well cooked meal as much or more than any fancy decor. With the reservations booked, gifts wrapped and ready, the only thing left to sort out was the ever-present question: "What am I going to wear??"

Kiyonna to the rescue! As the newest member of their Blogger Brigade, they sent me the most perfect dress for the occasion - with perfect timing too!

This is the Scalloped Boudoir Lace Dress and I am just absolutely head over heels for it. I love the nude lining and sheer sleeves - so classy with simple jewelry and a red lip. On this particular day I didn't have the bra I usually wear with deeper V's, but a simple pin at the bust saved the day - But I'd totally wear it with the proper plunge for another nighttime event, perhaps with bare legs and nude heels next time :) I'm wearing the 0x and it fits like a dream, fitted but still skimming over any problem areas. I can't wait to wear it again to my next fancy event!
