Date Night with Mr Fashion and Frank

Me and the man always try and have at least one date a month -just him and me and we do something special.  We have been together a long time and sometimes Cosmo is right you have to put the work in!!  Glad rags on and a night out in Chelsea culminating in a bus ride home - Great night, much hilarity xxxx






This is my first ever designer dress - bought for me by the man when we had a our first big year at Alberta Ferretti in Sloane Street - half price sale - 10 years ago now.  It is an absolutely stunning evening, red carpet styley dress in its entirety but that means it wouldn't come out very often - so i dress down with denim and boyfriend jumpers sometimes with lots of jewellery or simply like Saturday night - a pair of vintage opal earrings my mum gave me, my wishbone necklace, silver celine cuff,  Chanel bag and the Dior super wedges i have worn previously - feeling feminine and glam but not overdressed - even for the bus, well maybe a bit on the bus! xx

    You look well-put-together but not overdressed.
    This is an art form - I'm sure you know that;-)
    The dress ( from what I am able to see of it) is divine and the boyfriend jumper tempers an otherwise glamorous dress.

    Am sure you did not look out of place in the bus. I love Chelsea by the way. lol. Lived for for more than five years.

    Claire, dressing up or down, you wear the crown but I appreciate what you did to not make this overly fancy or fussy. Can I say that your makeup and hair look flawless? You're not one to OD so I esp. like what you've done there too. You might have to give a tutorial soon. All in all, you look great, perfect for your date! xx from Soleil
