Somerset House Ice Rink Christmas Tree Lighting

What Emma Wore

Emma looked very festive when she attended the Somerset House Ice Rink Christmas Tree Lighting. She wore a black, red and white polka dotted DKNY dress, a DKNY jacket, red scarf, DKNY shoes, black gloves and black tights. She paired the outfit with diamond accessories: flower diamond earrings, a diamond ring and a diamond bracelet. Although this outfit is very black, it is still very fun, flirty and perfect for the occasion.

Dress Guide

The Dress Emma wore a very cute polka dot dress from DKNY with a black long sleeve shirt underneath. When you are searching for a dress you want to look for a black dress, with polka dots and that has a defined line where the skirt is. The dress she wore is long sleeved but if you prefer short sleeves you can go that way as well. Emma's dress is a little sheer, but yours doesn't have to be.

The Jacket Emma paired her DKNY dress with a trench coat also by DKNY. You want a jacket that has very wide sleeves that go to about your elbow, you also want the jacket to be the same length as your dress if possible.

The Shoes Emma completed her DKNY look with her snakeskin DKNY shoes. She has worn these multiple times so that means they are a great investment. Look for round toe, high heeled pumps with very small snakeskin detailing.

The Accessories Emma wore a bunch of accessories to this event. They are pretty simple to find so I will just list them: red scarf, black gloves, diamond ring, diamond earrings, diamond bracelet and black tights. Since these are pretty simple accessories you can find whatever you like.

Hair & Make-Up Guide

Make Up
Step one. Eyes.
With a soft black eye pencil draw the outline of your mobile lid, from the outer corner of your eye towards the end of your eyebrow and stop where your natural crease begins. Follow the crease line all the way to the inner corner of your eye and then fill all the space in with the pencil, deposit enough color and then blend it with a blending brush, starting from the outer line.
Then take a black eyeshadow and a flat shader brush and pat the eyeshadow all over the black pencil. Take care of NOT goung above your crease!
Step two. Face.
You need a medium coverage matt/semimatt foundation and powder. Apply all over your face leaving out the under eye area and browbone. Take a small fluffy brush or a precise sponge and apply foundation under yor eyes and browbone. Apply powder, before or after the blush is up to you Wink
Apply a soft matte peachy blush to the apples of your cheeks. (Just smile to get them properly)
Step three. Lips.
Get a warm toned lip pencil, draw your lipline and blend, the apply a clear lipgloss on top.
Step four. Final touches.
Get a pale pink or cream colored eyeshadow on a brush and clean up the eyeshadow shape. Apply mascara.

Hair
You will need:
Hairbrush
Hair bands
Hair grips (kirby grips) to match your hair colour
Hairspray
Straighteners (flat iron)
Heat protection spray


1. This style works best with freshly washed hair so once your hair is fully dry, apply a heat protection spray. Taking small to medium sections of hair, use a straightening iron to get a smooth, straight look. Don't worry about making this completely neat because you will be tying your hair up later.
2. Gather up the majority of your hair, leaving the fringe/bangs section at the front loose. Using a hair brush, brush your hair up in to a pony tail that sits just above your ears, securing with a hair band.
3. Take a small section of hair from the pony tail and wrap it around the hair band in order to hide it. Secure this piece of hair underneath with a hair grip.
4. Part your fringe/bangs to the left hand side and brush through before pushing behind your right ear. Use hairspray to keep the style in place and looking smooth.
