The 'All Occasions' Dress

I bought this LBD from Coast in BT2 in 2007 (Well, my mother bought it for me- But I picked it out I swear!) I bought it for my 'Debutante Ball' from school which was in September 2007. I think it cost around 100euro which seemed like a lot of money then but now for me 100euro doesn't even seem expensive for Coast?! I never even go into that shop any more because the dresses cost so much...
I quite love the way I had my hair back when I was 18!!

A few weeks later I got the wear the dress again. This time I was in Las Vegas for my sister's wedding. (It was really classy I swear, when I tell people my sisters like to get married in Vegas they presume we're white trash!). I think this dress was perfect for the occasion. 

These are the only pictures I have and they don't even show the dress!!

Now, five years later I dug out the dress once more! This time I needed a dress for a dinner dance which was taking place after the 2013 swimming inter-varsities. I was a bit worried that I wouldn't fit into it- It was a bit tight but it fits! I think tattoos that I recently acquired give the dress a whole new vibe, it was dressy but definitely still had 'Katie's style' written all over it.


I'm probably going to wear this little black dress again on  a few more occasions- It's timeless!

I'm not sure whether I love or hate these Ted Baker flip flops.


The thought of plastic flip flops fills me with dread. they remind me of those jelly sandals that girls used to wear back in the nineties *shudder*. These Ted Baker flip flops, however, seem really cute! I love the bows on the front. I'm not a huge fan of the pink ones, but the black are nice and if I was buying a pair I'd choose the white/cream ones.

I might actually purchase these for my trip to Key West, Florida in June- I don't have any nice flip flops at the moment.
