Jazzing up this stunning 1960s-style "little black dress" (LBD to the initiated) made with heavy-weight twill with a bateau neckline & asymmetrical ruffled skirt from celebrated Aussie label Perri Cutten with vibrant blue "pops" of colour. These accents - a knit cropped cardigan with three-quarter-sleeves & diamante buttons from Kitten D'Amour & gorgeous handmade Mexican floral woven clutch with tassels from Arte Color Handmades boutique on Etsy - really bring life to the black leather strappy heels with elastic ankle straps from Jo Mercer & matching chunky black resin wave bangle & rosette ring from Dinosaur Designs. The deliberate colour choice was also a little nod to the event that I was attending that day, celebrating all things Elvis Presley & the fact that Baz Luhrmann's biopic that was predominantly filmed on the Gold Coast isn't that far away, as well all know that the "King of Rock n Roll" was also fond of the colour blue... suede shoes or Hawaii, either works for me...
