Black and gold

A new look. Don’t worry I am working on a blog post that isn’t about fashion but for the moment bare with me. I just got a new playsuit. After the misfortune of having my black jumpsuit shrunk in the wash I have been looking for a new one and although I have not found an affordable one yet, my eye did move to the short version while wondering through the Cotton On store. I like this because it is simple and so can be easily styled with loads of accessories. I also love the fact that you can dress this down with a pair of sandals and a cardigan or dress it up like I have with a nice chunky chain and a pair of killer (and sadly these are also feet killer) heels. I like the way this shows off my waist but is also loose and comfortable although I must admit that I don’t know how comfortable I am with the strapless shape as I am slightly self-conscious about my arms but I reckon one has to take the occasional risk.

I haven’t had an opportunity to wear it out dressed up like this but I have been wearing it a lot. Of course it is probably obvious that I am still following the black on black trend. Over all I think this gets a successful tick in the ‘staples’ box (I think a little black playsuit is just as good as a little black dress) and I think I will be wearing this for a while still.
