Downtown Nights

Whenever fall comes around I always find myself reaching for all the black in my closet. There's something about the chill of the air that makes me want to layer black leggings with black over-sized sweaters and black scarfs! I love black, who doesn't right? I especially love playing with textures and fabrics in an all black outfit. For instance, I think black velvet can be so chic and expensive looking when paired with other fabrics. I also love experimenting with sequins and leather and silk - all black. Lately i've found myself wearing lots of little black dresses on nights out on the town. Here is shown a one shoulder version of the LBD I wore with studded black chain purse, black gladiator heels, & big diamond costume jewelery. And of course the look would not be complete without black nails.

 P.S. yes it is pouring rain in this photo. The long Vancouver rainy season has started!
