I'm sure you all know that I really stick to my personal style and don't often experiment, but when Asos Fashion Finder asked if I'd like to style up a statement piece for their party season special, I couldn't resist - it's not often I get to prance around Battersea Park in a mesh skirt and not much else on an early December morning! Here are three of my favourite looks, I had so much fun shooting them with my mum, despite being absolutely freezing and in desperate need of a hot chocolate by the end. When I first received the skirt I knew straight away that I wanted to style it with my beautiful sequin corset for a spot of modern day elegance, of course embracing my inner Audrey! The corset actually used to be a maxi dress, which my mum bought for two pounds over twelve years ago for me to dress up as a witch for halloween, but a few years ago I cut it into top, and turned the bottom half into a skirt. I simply teamed it with a pair of black heels, plus the beautiful dappled sunlight really add to the overall look. For my second outfit I wanted to create something classic and a little sexy ( it's not often you see me in a crop top, oo-er), then my third look is slightly more casual and cuteYou can see the rest of my looks over on Fashion Finder, do let me know what you think! Love, Jazmine.

  14. Absolutely stunning photographs, Jazz! Each and every outfit is so wonderfully unique, despite having the same "centre-piece" - loving the mesh skirt, by the way! And I really do think you deserve a medal - or, at the very least, a cup of hot chocolate and slice of cake - for taking these photos on a DECEMBER MORNING!

    Best Wishes,

    Tara

  46. Oh, you look absolutely stunning! I love the skirt so much and it would seem really unpractical and totally ridiculous to wear on a usual day, but you make me want one so much! I love each and every outfit, but something about it matched to a really plain T makes my heart beat faster. And let's be honest, that skirt has a very obvious Carrie-vibe!
