Studded With Stars Unutterly Bright

I've succumbed to the lure of all-black outfits lately. There's a certain charm about the style that I quite enjoy and when you mix in a some heavy hardware I feel quite dramatic...almost theatrical, but in a good way. Resistance was futile when it came to pairing my studded handbag with my studded shoes; they just had to make an appearance together at least once. This ended up being the perfect outfit for an evening out at a dueling piano bar.

all-black looks so chic! i would get bored wearing all black, every day, but once in a while it's nice and it looks so perfect with all the studs. I really like the shape of that dress too!

Megan said...

Wow! I really love your bag. Where did you get it?

Hannah said...

i have the opposite problem - can't stop buying beautifully coloured outfits but always resort to wearing all black!

Jenni said...

this outfit is wonderful. I have to say I have a love of all black outfits when they are done right... like this one! and those tights are spectacular!

I went to a dueling piano bar for st. patty's day in Vegas a few years about and have so much fun! I bet this was the perfect outfit for the occasion!

revital said...

this dress is simply perfect! as well as the shoes, bag, everything!!!!!!!

i love the matchy-matchy studded theme of your bag and shoes. too cute!

i love all these forest settings you take your photos in. I've been trying to scope out cute trails/parks in WA to shoot in and can never find as lush (in terms of greenery) places as yours!

Marie said...

well you certainly know a thing or two about accessories making the outfit. those studded shoes and handbag, and your lace stockings are charming indeed. love the lush scenery. fabulous photos as usual.

reckless daughter said...

I love the studded shoes in particular. Your hair is getting so long. I'm extremely envious!

Delightfully Tacky said...

I love how you wear all black just as beautifully as your charmingly colorful outfits. Your hair looks ravishing against the black.

Charmalade said...

The last picture is perfection. I love how you're in this backdrop of soft nature that contradicts the all-black and studded outfit you're rocking. I think I'm having a little love affair with studs currently, too...

You're a stud! lol :) Love the stockings! What an adorable black dress!

Mae said...

There's nothing wrong with being a bit dramatic and theatrical. In fact, theatricality really does only add to the charm of everything "the Clothes Horse." I think it's a nice mix.

You are ethereal and dramatic amongst all these natural surroundings. It's a great *visual* study.

I'm quite envious at how you manage to pull off all black so effortlessly.
I always look like I'm going to a funeral.

Shelby said...

i die for your shoes!

piglet said...

Love the studded heels with the floral tights! You pull off all black so well by adding in so many lovely details.

Meghan V. said...

Absolutely adorable!

Trishna said...

Dusky and mysterious. These photos leave you wanting more.

Becca Jane said...

There is something about all black outfits. I think the sheer detail makes your look her a bit more romantic which I really like.

Country Mouse said...

Mmmm studs and black dresses....excellent.

I just noticed that your hair has gotten extremely long. I dunno if it's just that I haven't been on here in a while or whether your hair just grows fast, but it looks really good.

Juliet said...

Oh, but this outfit is so cute!

I love it!
Have a nice sunday!

indigotangerine said...

I love color, but all black allows for some interesting plays with texture (as your outfit proves) I just posted an all black outfit myself!

Danielle said...

That ring is absolutely adorable! Whenever I wear all black, my sister tells me I look like I'm going to a funeral...
