I AM WEARING WHITE DENIM SKIRT|DOVE GREY BLOUSE|CHOCKER

Hello my dear readers and fellow bloggers,

Hope you are all well and having a good week and have made some interesting plans for the coming weekend.

Today’s look is my second attempt to explore the possibility of the happy co-existence of rough street style denim and smooth luxurious silk that I started in the previous post (for those of you who, who have not read the previous post or would need a reminder, please read it here).  Hopefully, at the end of my experiment, I will end up with a couple of more fresh outfits. 

This outfit is full of challenges and experimentation and the elements involved are: a street style white denim skirt, an elegant evening dove grey silk blouse and a hand-made choker.

This is one of my most favourite blouses that I love to wear when we are going to the Opera House to see a ballet or to listen to a symphony concert. I like to pair it with a black maxi skirt or tuxedo pants and adorn it with a string of pearls. There are few details of it that I particularly like, the fact that it does not have buttons but rather wraps up around your hips and the overextended sleeves with French style cuffs that I prefer to wear down for an extra chic factor as opposed to a casual rolled-up cuff look.

Today, however, I am pairing it with a white denim skirt that is in a totally different league and really hoping that it would work. The combo does not look too bad but it needs some final touches and the key to success is to choose the right accessories: shoes, handbag, jewellery etc.

First and and probably most crucial of them all - the footwear.  I was debating between low and high heel shoes and I tried them both but after consulting the mirror, the high heels won hands down.

WE ALL KNOW THAT NOT ONLY DO HIGH HEELS HELP TO MAKE OUR LEGS SLIMMER AND LONGER BUT ALSO DELIVER A STRIKE OF ELEGANCE TO THE SIMPLEST OUTFIT TAKING IT TO A COMPLETELY NEW LEVEL.

 I added a small Chanel purse to keep it consistent with the elegantly chic style of the blouse and the shoes.

Also, I am experimenting with a choker. I have never ever worn nor owed a choker before but since I am pushing boundaries here, why not add another one, right? It is not a choker per se, it is, actually, is a bracelet that I wrapped around my neck and tied up at the back with a piece of string.  It was a classic case where the saying “Necessity is a mother of invention” can be applied.

I was having a lot of fun bringing all the elements together to create a stylish new outfit and I think I succeeded.

What do you think, my friends? Would really like to hear your thoughts.
