Black Lace: Simple But Seductive

Black lace top and skirt worn as a dress

This dress? It isn’t a dress at all, in fact it’s a top and skirt of the same fabric that I’ve put together to look like a dress. I’ve been learning a bit about how to dress for your body shape lately and apparently one block colour is more flattering to my figure than say, broken up shapes or colours (think jacket and pants) or a large, splashy print. Not that I make it my business to wear those clothes, but it is interesting to learn about how to put your best fashion foot forward.

I’ve been learning from Melbourne based Jo Shiers of The Style Adviser, but there is also heaps of information online if you are so inclined. As I say to my students, make Google your friend!

What I’m wearing:
Top: Chicwish
Skirt: Chicwish
Heels: Clarks
Sunglasses: Gucci from Vision Direct
Purse: Vintage
Gold cuffs: a collection of op-shop finds and 24 carat gold I bought on my travels to Jordan last year.
Ring: Samantha Wills
Belt: Vintage Trent Nathan, similar here
Earrings: Vintage
Hair comb: belonged to Mother Melbourne
