OOTD: Trend Release Party

Last night was our fashion magazines release party. We celebrated the 15th anniversary of Trend with a fabulous night of sparkle, fashion, and fun. The theme of the party was diamonds and sparkle because the issue was named the Diamond issue. 

Naturally I pulled out my most sparkly sequin dress for the occasion. My dress is a body con style dress with black and silver sequins. The sequins are double sided so when you brush your hand you can change the color of your dress. I paired the dress with a blazer to make it more winter appropriate. Also due to the fact that it was about 5 degrees outside. 

I styled the look with a gold sequin skinny belt to accent my waist. It gives the dress a little bit of added shape and also a little more shine. Then I wore a longer necklace with gold and silver chains. 

To complete the look I wore a pair of chunky maroon heels and black tights. 

My hair was styled in a ballerina bun to keep it out of my face. A bun is a great hair do for parties because it's not only easy to do but then you don't have to worry about your hair the rest of the night! Which is idea if it is windy outside. 

Overall, I loved this outfit. I felt super chic and of course sparkly.

I am in love with these maroon heels! They are a great way to add a small splash of color to a winter outfit. Not to mention the help me grow a few inches in the process. 

Here are some shots of the night. We had a fashion show featuring local boutiques and ASOS as well as refreshments, a DJ, photo booth, and of course getting to flip through the new issue of Trend!
