At this event Emma wore a very flowy chiffon dress, with a blazer, tights and brown boots along with a black Chanel watch. This outfit was the perfect mix of cute and grungy. A flowing dress mixed with a bit of grunge when she added on the distressed boots!

Dress Guide

The Dress When looking for dresses you want to find a nice flawy chiffon fabric with short sleeves in a black and white color scheme. Emma's dress is actually see through with a slip connected to the dress, but that isn't necessary. You just want a pretty flowing dress, and if you can find one with a v-neck that's a plus as well.

The Jacket Emma wore a simple blazer to this event, so it should be very easy to replicate. You want to look for a plain black blazer with 3 buttons, and then you've got it!

The Shoes For boots you want to find a nice brown lace up boot that goes almost to your knee. If you can find a distressed looking leather that would be great but its not totally necessary.

The Accessories For accessories, you are looking for a black watch with diamond/jeweled detail, black tights and a grandma/Mary Poppins-type purse (you all know what I mean, ha ha) with flower fabric. A few minutes later I have realized that its called a carpet bag, the name had escaped me but at least I remembered!

Hair & Make-Up Guide

Make Up
The look: Shimmery gold eyes and a glowing complexion.
The idea of this look is to keep things as natural as possible. Start off by applying a coat of powder foundation (Urban Decay Surreal Skin Universal Mineral Powder) to your skin in a matching tone. Smear a peachy blush (NARS Blush in Amour) on the apples of your cheeks, sweeping up along your hairline. Line your top and bottom lids with a thick line of shimmery gold eyeliner (Lancôme Le Crayon Khôl in Golden Blaze). Curl eyelashes and apply two coats of black mascara (Kanebo 38°C Mascara in Black) to your top lashes. Finish with a sweep of sheer nude-colored lipgloss (Stila Silk Shimmer Gloss).

Hair
The hairstyle: A chic flipped ponytail.
Part your hair on the left and straighten it in layers. Brush your locks back into a low-sitting ponytail and secure with an elastic band. Once your hair is held in place, divide the hair above the elastic band into two sections with your fingers; flip the tail end through the divided hair and pull it through. Hold any unwanted strands back with bobby pins, and set everything with hairspray.
