Graduating in style | Mango must haves



The graduation season is upon us & If you haven't seen the photos all over social media - You sir have been living under a rock!
Well, as the Grad hype has arrived & a lot of you lovely ladies are flooding through the shopping centres looking for the perfect frock or suit for the big day. Although my graduation will not be until next summer, as your ever dedicated little sales associate machine I have put together a treat of top outfits - All from Mango (of course), that are not only affordable but also oh so stylish.

I have set myself a challenge to put together a handful of tempting completed outfits for under £200. & yes ladies this means dresses, shoes, bags & accessories all included under 200 smack-a-roos!
Since working at Mango its become quite clear that many of you have this pre-misconception that we are one of these overly expensive shops - But I assure you we're not!

So without further a-do, take a look at my top graduation outfits!


 
| Dress | Necklace | Shoes | Bag |
Total outfit price : £119.96

Ombre! - We were obsessed with it in our hair so why not drape our body too?
I have to say I've been in love with this dress ever since it arrived in the Trinity Leeds store. This shift style dress teamed with some killer patient heels & a simple clutch is perfect for a stylish & chic look for your Graduation.
 


| Dress | Necklace | Rings | Bag | Shoes |
Total outfit price : £167.95

Va-va-voom, hello lady in red!
 Ok so a little red dress is always a must have in any womans wardrobe, so why not rock this to your graduation day? I find red a perfect colour for people of all skin tones. It gives a very vintage look to us paler ladies & a sultry sexy look for all you tanned beauties.
I've added in a splash of gold jewellery & some unusual chain linked heels for a really luxurious look. Plus a really simple but real leather clutch - This will go with everything!



| Dress | Necklace | Bracelet | Bag | Shoes |
Total outfit price : £189.95

Royal blue for all the royal baby hype? I've actually seen this shade of blue in a lot of graduation photos - Perhaps its the colour of this summer. The ruffles in this little stunner are very 1950's flapper style, so the colour & cut alone is enough of a statement without overloading with extravagant jewellery.
I've put this together with some very modest nude heels & matching quilted clutch, very demure & classy!


| Jumpsuit | Belt | Bracelets | Shoes | Bag |
 Total outfit price : £199.95

 & finally we have an exciting jumpsuit! I was going to put together a nice trouser suit ensemble for you but I remembered this little beauty (of which I wrestled onto a mannequin last week!) & just had to style it into a completed outfit for you.
For this one as you can see, I haven't included a necklace. I think the unusual waterfall neckline doesn't need anything else, so instead we have a simple 3 piece set of gun metal bangles & an amazing statement wrap waist belt. Plus some pretty sharp looking studded toe heels.

Well there you have it!
4 amazing outfits - If I do say so myself - each for under £200. I for one would wear each and everyone of these ensembles but I think my favourite is the most expensive of the lot, the jumpsuit!

Which is your favourite?
