Back to Black


~ T by Alexander Wang dress, Tory Burch bag, Lulu Frost necklace, Miu Miu flats ~

Ringing in 2012, I've started to gain a penchant for flaunting statement, or rather understated pieces that shine in front of a wash of a single colour. The weather has finally cleared up, and I'm looking forward to showcasing some of my favourite summer pieces. Whilst I prefer my everyday style to maintain a level of minimalism, I am always on the hunt for items that have a certain detail that tear it apart from the mainstream. This LBD is the perfect example, with the ruched back, yet classic design.


~ the difference a ruched back makes ~


~ a necklace with personal value and beauty ~


~ the gold chains on my bag are a perfect compliment to my necklace ~


~ on another note, my nail polish seems to attach the metallic hardware of my accessories ~

    I love the LBD matched with that gorgeous bag. Audrey meets bad girl. A perfect combination.
