Thandie Newton is one of those actresses who's style has never stood out to me before. Recently I came across this image of Thandie attending the 'Good Deeds' film premier in LA and she was rocking the metallic trend to it's very best!
Lace will always remain popular and I just love how Temperley have teamed it up with a metallic shade for a really glamorous dress! This one is actually from their Pre-Fall 2012 collection and features three quarter length sleeves, detailed waist band and a full hem.
The dress is pretty simple but it makes quite a statement, meaning accessorizing only needs to be minimal. Thandie's chosen a simple black clutch and strappy Jimmy Choo heels but it's her hair style that's the best accessory of all!
Topshop: Floral Print Lace Dress by LOVE - £40 ASOS: Chinese Laundry Strappy Platform Cork Sandal - £48, NARS SS12 Pure Matt Lipstick - £18.50 New Look: 2pk Leopard Spot Hair Bow - £2.50, Black Beaded Scallop Clutch - £19.99 |
As soon as I saw Thandie's lace dress it reminded me of ones I had seen in Topshop before so I immediately headed over there to see if there were any replicas, and what do you know, there was! Thandie's outfit is pretty glam so is perfect for nights out/special occasions and even Christmas parties if you plan that far ahead! The Floral Print Lace Dress is quite reasonable at £48 and could be worn again and again in a number of different ways. I just love it!
Black accessorys are so easy to come by and I'm sure most of us wouldn't need to buy new ones for a special occasion as we probably have loads stashed in our wardrobes already. I'd love to wear these heels along with the dress and a pair of black tights!
Unless you can find a curled hair piece, I think another hair accessory is probably the way to go. I spotted a great 2pk of Leopard Spot Hair Bows that are so cute and really fit in with the colours and style of the outfit!
What do you think of Thandie's style? Will you be recreating this look?
