Lately I’m wearing my hair up constantly because of the awkward length as I grow it all out. I can almost tuck my fringe behind my ear now but not quite – I still need a lot of hairspray to hold it down flat. I haphazardly tease and tuck the rest up in a bundle of bobby pins and then I’m out the door. It’s a great style really for the warmer weather we’re having more frequently.

There’s definitely an element of sophistication that an elegant pair of high heels brings to an outfit. I’d been dying to wear these sandals out but after months of relying on the support of ankle boots I was a little terrified how I’d go with a stiletto heel for the night. A few glasses of wine though and I didn’t feel my feet so much anymore.

You rarely see me wearing earrings much these days but with my hair up and a high neckline it just felt right. I made these as part of an assignment for uni and was pleasantly surprised with how well they turned out. There’s a matching ring and necklace that I hope to blog in greater detail soon.

I basically never wear earrings anymore, but I agree, with hair up, and the neck exposed, I think they can look really good. Looking very sophisticated indeed :) Kudos to you for handling the stiletto heel, I can’t do it. Too painful!

I’ve been fruitlessly searching around for sandals and here you are! Nice balancing of the double ankle strap with the belt.

You look simply ATONISHING. Love the way you wear your face (it lets you show your beautiful face), and the earrings really suit you.

Nice weekend.

Before I even read your writing, I thought, “Wow, she really looks great with her hair up.”

You look wonderfully elegant with your hair up, the dress, the earrings and the heals. But there is still an ‘edge-y-ness” to you with all the silver rings. I like the frayed edges around the neckline and sleeves of the dress. Nice and usual.

great look! I love total black!

the lines in the piece are edgy and rough and still the overall flow of the piece is modern and sleek. contradiction and juxtaposition slide effortlessly in the lines and the piece screams at me about a modern, hip wilma flinstone in her little black dress.

Biggest babe! I’m pretty sure I have this dress in white – but the black with the belt is possibly (definitely) way cooler.
