Classic

by Jen on Thursday, December 22, 2011


As much fun as it is to dress in bright colour and pattern, I never tire of going back to basic black and white. This dress from MontAffair is great for this classic vibe, with its feminine pleats and basic but timeless cut. I love that this Singpore-based online store ships worldwide for only $10. I'm currently eyeing this "Origami" dress - so much detail and it's only $30!



Wearing: YesStyle blazer, MontAffair dress (c/o), thrifted blouse, MICHAEL Michael Kors clutch, Stuart Weitzman booties (c/o)

Cute dress! The crisp white pussy-blow blouse is the perfect item to add to the outfit to create a classic feminine look.

Black and white is always a good choice - and you can't screw it up! What a relief during the holidays when there's so much to worry about!

Happy Holidays, Jen! Cheers to a wonderful 2012!

I love those stuart weitzman boots sooo much. I also love the blouse layered under the dress. I wore something similar recently (no photos though, because that's what happens sometimes haha) and I felt so mature!

Great look Jen!

Oooh the shipping is really not bad at all! The silhouette of this dress looks great on you and like that you used detail at the focus instead of shocks of colour. Thanks for sharing!

That dress is gorgeous! Something I could wear to the office but switch up to wear in the evening too. I'm definitely going to check that site out.

A girl can never, never go wrong with black and white... especially when black and white involves pleats! This dress is absolutely gorgeous; I'm going to have to investigate MontAffair! Happy Holidays, Jen!

Pairing the dress with a pussybow blouse was a perfect idea!
