Outfit for Wine & Dine Event

I was very lucky to be chosen by Fairmont Hotels to come up with an outfit post for a Wine & Dine event at their San Jose Hotel. 

The invitation was too surreal for me because I have never imagined that one day I would be invited to write a fashion blog post, let alone being contacted by such a prestigious hotel like this!!!

So here is my take on it.

Since I am not very tall, I do not have the privilege to be able to pull off those long dreamy maxi dresses T_T That's my dream though...to be able to wear a Tiffany blue maxi dress.

Although purple is not on my favourite-colour list, I cannot deny the fact that purple does give out an elegant and mysterious vibe. 

A pair of minimalist white heels goes well with nearly everything. 

I like the fact that this dress has a very significant layering design and that really spices up the look without needing any accessories at all. 

Also, as the dress has a very special design around the neck, I didn't want to go overboard with some excessive and unnecessary necklaces and earrings. 

I only wore a silver watch to keep the elegance of the entire look. 

My tip for girls who are around my height - 1.6m, I encourage you to wear a dress of the length that is not over your knees so you can keep the illusion of long legs :p Go with heels as high as possible because that will just make your legs appear even longer and slimmer. Too bad I am having a constant backache these days, if not I would definitely opt for taller pair of heels.
