Bright Green, Black and Mint Pearls.

I wore this Outfit to a very important work meeting, just this Monday. I wanted to look dressy, polished, classy and professional and I think I achieved the look I was going for. A Simple Black Dress can work for such an occasion and the Dress I am wearing is pretty casual, but I dressed it up and made it work-ready here. Which is easy to do by adding a Blazer. Instead of a Neutral Blazer I went for a Bright one. This Emerald Green Blazer was the right pop I needed. Then some Statement-making Red via my MK Bag and on the lips and I was done for the color pops. Last but not least I added some Classy Pearls and simple Crystal Studs on the ears. For my Shoes: a bit of Pink because I wore my Blush/Powder Pink Patent Leather Pumps. It is Breast Cancer AWearNess after all. I got many compliments on this outfit. Here is a Similar Outfit where I paired another Black Shirt-dress with a Blazer and Neutral Shoes. I wore that one for Easter this year. Have you worn a Simple LBD or a Black Shirt-dress with a Blazer before? Do you like this look?

  6. I always enjoy dressing up a black dress, I did recently with my eShakti dress. That green blazer looks great with the dress and I think the nude heels were a perfect choice, too.

  15. Ada, you know how obsessed I am about colour?, Well I have to say that this shade of green is so perfect for your skin tone. It harmonises with the warm undertones you have and reflects beautifully. You look fresh, lively and radiant!
