| I'm all about the Red + Blue combo lately |
I have to start off with a confession; my mum HATED this look. See the top is actually this dress I last wore 2 years ago and when I walked in (it was my muffin's grad party and I was seated at the high table) she immediately WhatsApped something along the lines of what a bore I was for cutting the dress!
Thing is I didn't alter the dress one bit! Just wore this black ruched skirt over it and added a red belt for the ultimate colour blocked ensemble. Finished the look off with leopard print ankle strap heels because with my red hair and electric blue *top* I felt any more colour would draw attention away from the graduate and that's surely a faux pas somewhere in the etiquette books. Right up there with showing up to a wedding in the same dress as the bride with hotter shoes - it happens.
Anyhow even after clearing up that misunderstanding with mum her sentiments vis-a-vis my outfit didn't improve much! What can I say, sometimes you're bond to have some misses. What matters is I felt good in it.

| Very thematic, right? Given we are in the month of L.O.V.E and all. They can be customised though to have any letters of your choice. |
In other news, I did the decor for the party right from the table set up down to the flower arrangements! Did I mention I had less than 2 hours notice and a little over that to come up with a concept (stars), colour scheme (red & cream) and get the shopping done and everything set up? Challenges are the spice of life I tell you.
I'm wondering if should put the vases up in my first give away for the year...they'd make for great home decor for V Day or even a gift for a loved one. What do you guys think?
