Eveningwear with Bride And Co

It’s almost Christmas time and time to ring in a new year! 2020 has been challenging for all of us to say the least, so I’m sure we are all glad to see this year go, and I am excited for a new chapter in 2021. This year hasn’t given us a lot of occasions to dress up for, but the festive season is reason enough for me! Even though we might not be going out, I still think its great to dress up and get dolled up for some celebrations, even if it’s just in your home.

In Russia we don’t celebrate Christmas as such, but New Years Eve is a big celebration and it is almost always done in someone’s home! Growing up every New Years Eve we would get dressed up and cook a delicious meal and spend time with family, right from the comfort of our own home, so this year will be no different for me. Another tradition that I grew up with has always been to co-ordinate my outfit to what the Chinese Zodiac sign is for the coming year, as it is said to bring you luck if you dress correctly. Because 2021 year is the year of the Metal Ox in the Chinese Zodiac, it is advised to wear metallic colors on New Years Eve to welcome in the new year. Hey, I will take any luck that I can get for 2021 😉

With that in mind I wanted to show you guys a few beautiful metallic dress options from Bride And Co to also inspire your festive outfit.  They have such a gorgeous section of gowns and are always my first stop for evening wear. I liked SO many dresses but just chose these 2 to shoot because they were my favorites.

I absolutely love this halter neck beaded dress, and this was my first choice for bridesmaids’ dresses, because how gorgeous? It is fully beaded and encrusted with beautiful sparkles and beads all over and its quite heavy to wear but so wort it! I would wear this for a fabulous Christmas Eve Dinner, paired with a pair of Jimmy Choo heels and some minimal jewelry. With a look like this, you will sparkle more than the Christmas tree!

My second outfit that I would wear on New Years Eve, is this gorgeous foiled gold dress. It feels amazing on you, and the fabric falls like a waterfall as you glide through the room. As I said it is the year of the Metal Fox, so bring in all the luck in 2021 when you are dresses in something as beautiful as this!

I paired the dress with a pair of black strappy heels and my beloved Saint Laurent clutch bag.

I hope this has given you some inspiration for upcoming festivities at home, and here are a few other metallic dresses that I think would be perfect for celebrations! Remember that you can book a free virtual appointment with Bride And Co anytime, or pop into their stores for a consult. I also love this Criss-Cross Halter neck Sequin Sheath Dress with Front Keyhole detail, this multi-coloured strapless fully sequin Aztec dress with front slit , and this fully sequin black dress with side-slit and cut-out back detail.

Here are some other wine farms that I love not only for their delicious wine but also for their cheese platters, yummy lunches and crazy beautiful views. Drop your favorites below because sharing is caring and let’s support our local wine industry 😊
🍷 @cavalliestate - I mean obviously, it’s why we chose it as a wedding venue! Their food is SO good, I’ve had it a few times now and even though their seasonal menu changes often, I can safely say that anything that you order from their menu will be divine 🤤 
🍷 @capepointvineyardsofficial One of the best cheese and charcuterie boards I’ve ever had was here! The views are beautiful because you see the beach AND the vineyards at the same time 😍
🍷 @beauconstantia - If you’re feeling like treating yourself then head on over to Chefs Warehouse that is in Beau Constantia, or enjoy a cheese board in the wine tasting area, overlooking some gorgeous vineyards .
🍷 @leopardsleap - Lovely for a birthday or a special occasion, Leopards Leap offers a Family Table experience  which is a mouthwatering selection of starters, mains and desserts, prepared just for you🤤At R395 a person it’s a great deal for the awesome meal that you get, believe me I’ve tried it!

From the 80s-vibe black jumpsuit that I wore in the streets of New York to whimsical tutu and tulle skirts that I bought because of her, Carrie has been a constant source of #OOTD inspiration for me! Are you as excited as I am about the reboot? Also which of these looks is your fav?

Bush baby vibes 🦒Please recommend some good bus Bush baby vibes 🦒Please recommend some good bush lodges under this post 🙏🏻I recently spent some time at the Kruger National Park with my parents and while we had an amazing time in the park and managed to see the Big 5, our lodge was anything but fabulous, and it came with a hefty price tag so we were a bit disappointed 😩What are your recommendations, within a reasonable price range of course 😉, of some lovely lodges in the bush? I would love to do more local trips in 2021 🙌🏻
