As promised, here is the dressier look featuring that favourite leather pencil skirt of mine, I hope you're not sick of hearing me rave about leather, if something works, make it work hard right?

To say a long-sleeved white shirt is an essential, is a huge understatement. I bent this rule a little bit here and opted for a nude/blush toned chiffon shirt by Cameo the Label with an interesting double-layered cut; going for an ivory or cream shade would have also worked well to avoid looking too 'corporate'. You'll notice that the links to shirts are a bit on the pricey side, however, as shirts like these are the definition of a wardrobe staple, it's not worth wasting money on shirts that will just deteriorate after a few uses; Equipment and Cameo shirts have a stellar reputation for being not only exceptionally good quality, but also an exceptionally good fit. Teamed with my favourite Gillie heels from Windsor Smith and a neck plate from Bardot, this is definitely date-night-appropriate; swap the seductive heels for refined pumps and the neck plate for a simple chain and you might even be ready to meet the parents.
Happy shopping!
