Whether you have a chic wedding to attend or just cocktails with the girls – we all need that perfect little dress that you can just pop on and feel fabulous in. The Sugahfix Gals have put together three gorgeous looks from Rushmere Shopping Centre - all at under £100!
Ciara is quite the fashionista and works in Awear at Menarys in Rushmere so I was under pressure to impress! Ciara is a real cutie and while she is petite – she has perfect proportions and has a great pair of pins. I wanted to give her a modern Betty Draper look – utterly chic and classy. Sonja at Trade Secrets gave Ciara a fab modern beehive that made the most of her fine hair – and really showcased her jawline.
If you have a boyish shape and think you can't pull off a vintage-inspired fit-and-flare shape – this dress will show off your slim figure and adds feminine curves at the hip and structure at the neckline with the collar. A clutch and peep-toe heels finished the look.
Styling tip: When choosing accessories to go with a print - pick out a key colour from the design and make sure you match it exactly. Avoid going for neutral accessories with a bright coloured print unless the neutral is part of the print.
Jane Norman dress £45
Jane Norman clutch £18
'Neptune' peep toe shoes £28
Red Herring 'C' key ring £7 Total: £98 All at Debenhams, Rushmere Shopping Centre.
 

A strapless maxi dress is a great option for a summer wedding or a glam event. It's an easy to wear look – nothing too constricting and the neat bodice and flowy fabric skims over tums and hips so you'll be able to enjoy a sumptuous wedding feast and it'll be comfortable to wear all day.
This gorgeous dress from H&M at Rushmere is under forty pounds and is an absolute steal! Pair with a slouchy black blazer if you need a cover up. We all loved the funky wedges from H&M which also look like they'd have a 1 added to the start of the price – an absolute bargain at £29.99.
Styling tip: The pinky peachy tone and the grey are quite hard to match exactly so opt for accessories with pattern detail or if you want a really dressy look – go for pearls.
Strapless maxi dress from H&M £39.99
Print detail wedges from H&M £29.99
Bangles from Oasis at Debenhams £10 each
Flower head band by Red Herring at Debenhams £4.99
Total: £94.97. All from Rushmere Shopping Centre.
 

Stripes are a huge trend for summer and this colour blocked striped dress is a fabulous shape for gals with fabulous curves. The cinched-in waist and fitted shape is a really flattering cut.
I also love the fact the dress has concealed pockets - the great cut, vibrant colours and pockets all add up to a much more expensive looking dress than it's mere thirty pounds price.
You could go for a total colour-blocking look and accessorise with red or blue – which I went for in the coat and clutch but with the black stripes in the dress I opted for a glossy black heel with a bow detail for an utterly feminine fifties feel. The sunglasses are the perfect match for the heels and the white bow detail on the arm just like the Chanel designer versions.
