The Look
This outfit didn't start as a project (to be honest, they rarely do, and I love it so much), I just put on a black dress, knowing I couldn't really go wrong there, and started playing with accessories.
When I put on the pearls I liked the feel, but not the look, so I adjusted them just a little bit to fit the neckline of the dress and fell in love with the aesthetic. I put on all of the pearl bracelets I could find, my trusty black pumps, and added a pop of Audrey Hepburn with square sunglasses and I was ready to face the day with grace, class, and dignity.
Looking back on it I feel like I was basically back to a child playing dress up, but in the moment I felt absolutely glamorous and unafraid.
If there is anything I've learned about fashion, it's that the smallest change can make the biggest difference. Who knows, maybe a seemingly unimportant change you make today, will turn you into an icon tomorrow.
Always be an Icon,
Smallred <3
Recreate the Look?
If I were to try this again I might chose a dress with a little bit of a thicker strap. For this outfit I'd like to see the bow on my belt as white in stead of black, and I would add a floppy black and white striped beach hat. Maybe some white bows on my shoes, and if I'm feeling really Hepburn, some white gloves.
