Gl-Armour


Recently attending a charity ball with a ‘desert glamour’ dress code allowed for some artistic expression.  I opted for a Diane Von Furstenburg gown with antique gold scale sequins that form an armour-like bodice paired with layered black chiffon.  Choosing accessories with gilded-esque gold accenting and stud embellishment aided in complimenting the armour effect.  As you may have noticed from previous posts, I do enjoy a good mix-up or ‘accessories salad’ if you will, that all seem to work together in harmony (cheesy but don’t it sound pleasing!).  Insert chain necklace with delicate leaf adorned shoes and voila you have full body desert gl-armour. Joy!

    You look so beautiful. I love everything. Alexander Mcqueen is one of my favorite designers and I am never disappointed when it comes to her designs for shoes and clutches. The dress is gorge.

    Absolutely divine! Normally I would say a statement necklace next to a sequined top/bodice would be overwhelming....but alas, this works so well! Inspiring.

    Thanks so much for your comment on my blog. I'm now following yours.
