What Cocktail Dress to wear whilst Sipping the Cosmopolitan


The Cosmopolitan – 2oz vodka, dash of triple sec, 1 oz cranberry juice, 1oz fresh lime juice.
Wet the rim of a chilled cocktail glass with cranberry juice and dip in granulated sugar. Add vodka, triple sec, cranberry and lime juice in cocktail shaker with ice. Shake and strain into the cocktail glass.


The retro ladylike look is the latest big trend. This cranberry satin knee length dress by Taylor Dresses is very ladylike with tulle underlay, slim black bow waist belt and high neckline but sexy low back.
 Fabric: 94% polyester 6% elastine Price £137 available from www.qvcuk.com  item nbr:153549

Court shoes foot the ladylike bill and look great with this style of dress but that doesn’t mean they have to be plain. Bourne Collection  have the Samantha, a black or taupe mesh pointed court shoe with scattered ‘sugar’ crystals, an electroplate heel and a leather sole.  Both colours will go with red but as the belt is black, we’ve chosen the black pair. Price £171. www.bournecollection.com

Team with the red satin pod with black lace overlay from www.olgaberg.com . Includes a shoulder chain. Price £45

Cocktail ring: Like the cocktail add a splash of lime with Jian of London’s Stardust Checkerboard cut ring. Brazilian green amethyst in either Sterling Silver or 18k gold or sterling silver. Retail price starts at £395
