You can never go wrong with black, especially for a black tie wedding or other up-coming special occasion. Here I decided to recreate a look for less inspired by New York Fashion Week 2013 fashionable attendee, Miranda Kerr. She looked effortlessly beautiful in Dolce & Gabbana black velvet? skirt with satin and lace detailing throughout combined with a matching sheer black scalloped lace caplet top tucked under the skirt. She opted for minimal jewelry, wavy side-swept hair, and a super natural makeup look with the slightest touch of blush, lip gloss, and red nail polish.
In my look for less, I think either a Vince Camuto black mermaid skirt or a sheer maxi skirt topped with a black satin bridal-style belt would go well with a tucked in short-sleeved black lace top. I would wear a black or skin-tone cami or bandeau top under the shear blouse as I am not as risqué as Miranda (i.e., no wardrobe malfunctions a` la Miranda Kerr = crisis averted ;). For jewelry, rather than diamond stud earrings, I kicked it up a notch and added these tear-drop pearl earrings and a Michael Kors crystal-accented bangle for an elegant touch of sparkle. Finally, I chose Sole Society's Giselle black patent almond toe pumps and a black clutch with gold embellishments. Oh, and don't forget a pop of red nail polish!
