colour me captivated: Ebony, Ivory and Flecks of Gold

April 22, 2011


{afternoon tea}

The ultimate in glamour, mixing black, white and gold is an equation for instant sophistication. This classic combination of shades is one of my favourites to wear and what I dream of adorning my future home with one day. This week I created ensembles in this shade for multiple occasions, in hopes of demonstrating the right colour combination makes it that much easier to look polished wherever you go!


{casual shopping day}


{backyard barbeque}


{weekend in the city}

    Hi Jen.

    Thanks for stopping by my blog! Yes, the shirt dress is a chambray fabric – but it’s a very light, so it’s not a true chambray.

    P.S. – Great style! 🙂

    The lace cutout detailing on the dress in the first set is amazing. I’m definitely of the belief that one can never have too many little black dresses, especially if they all have some small unique details like this one!

    All of your outfits that you pieced together are just darling, but the first one holds a special place in my heart. It is just beyond perfect and oh so girly and sweet!

    Thank you ever so much for dropping by my blog and leaving such a truly lovely comment! I appreciate it ever so much 😀

    Very cute ensembles. I don’t know if you can ever really go wrong when you go with the basics.

    BTW, I don’t know if you’ve stumbled into an F21 recently, but they actually have a cute sundress that resembles the one in your first get up, minus the structuring in the waistline (and the hefty price tag). It’s actually quite cute in person. 🙂

    Awesome! I love all of the black dresses…very chic! Especially the one with the lace bottom 🙂

    The Chanel earrings on your last collage are very unique too. Glad I found your blog.
