I had to think fast on my feet in regards to the outfit I wore today, which, of course, I've become quite a pro at...But my mom invited me to a "Naughty and Nice" Christmas party approximately an hour before it started, and I wanted to represent both teams so I drew up inspiration from the Moulin Rouge. Here's what I came up with...
|
The Ypres Tulle Dress by Moulinette Soeurs I rocked today :) And no, that skinny model is not me...
|
|
A closer view of the fine detailing in the bodice- it's very reminiscent of that classic turn of the 19th-century piece we've come to know as the corset. |
|
The waist of the dress is embellished with a black ribbon (which could easily be replaced with another belt for a totally different look...), while the skirt of the piece is layered with black tulle. |
|
I wore the dress with this gold sequined scarf, lined with fringed thread. |
|
Some black pumps with golden sequins at the toes... |
|
This is what the scarf looked like on, but someone could wear this scarf in other ways (for instance, the fringed detailing does not need to be so apparent- I merely discovered the look with the scarf and thought it was awesome.) Needless to say, I didn't wear a necklace with my ensemble because the scarf made much more of a statement, so I just paired it with pink earrings lined with gold- this picture doesn't really capture the latter well... |
|
The final look!!! I was SO happy with the outcome that I think I may wear the dress again this weekend- of course, with different accessories, but I love how each piece of the outfit works so well together, creating such a classy yet playful image.
Okay, well, thanks for reading!! I need to go practice my can-can now... xxx |
