Little black dress? Yeah right… You still hope to get something new on this subject? This might be what was on your mind when you saw the title of this blog. Well, it might be just another boring post to people who have got enough of the dress. Yet, still I believe there are far more other ladies who will never lose their interests in it, since this legendary dress is likely to do far more than you thought.
When we talk about the little black dress (LBD), we are actually referring to endless possibilities. I bet it is hell difficult to find another kind of dress that can beat the little black dress to be the most versatile and safest and timeless dress in history of clothing. For exciting nights out on town, romantic dates, delightful parties, grand banquets, upper-class balls or even for sad funerals, the little black dress can perform well to the most proper degrees.
And besides its absolute versatility, the endlessness of its possibilities can also be presented by the different styles, or I may prefer the word “flavors”, you want to achieve with the little black dress. One best point about this is that the dress itself is not memorable and thus you can wear it again and again by simply pairing it with different accessories. Sometimes even you yourself can’t remember whether you’ve worn that one before. In addition, although the dress is not that memorable, the perfect image every time you make wearing it will be rather impressive to others.
For people who desire for more about how to bring out the marvelous effects from the LBD, here I want to show you some of my best picks to fabulously pair your LBD.
A Belt
A belt, not necessarily in black, can accent your slim figure, and add some more elegance. Ladies without a suitable belt can also go for a simple and sleek long scarf and do a pretty bow knot with it, as LV did.
A Pair of Gloves
If you do it right, it will look like that the dress and the gloves were meant to be together. It will be safer if you choose the ones in dark colors. The combination can make you a lady of quality, even as elegant as Audrey Hepburn.
A Pair of Over-the-Knee Boots
You can truly get my point when actually seeing how gorgeous you can be in a LBD and a beautiful pair of over-the-knee boots. If you need something eye-catching, try boots in vibrant colors.
A purse
To carry your essentials, you will also need a purse to be your companion to the evening banquets or parties. Yet, I mean the small one here. A huge tote can screw your whole style up. And in order to make the all black dress not too dull, a purse in a eye-catching shades will be better.
Aside from these above that I’ve mentioned, lots of other accessories can be used to pair a LBD, a pearl necklace, big earrings and bracelet, and even a bow knot, which will all add much elegance and beauty to your attire.
This timepice has captured my heart with the gorgeous dial inn dark blue when I first saw it! And I am talking about the IWC Portuguese Perpetual Calendar in limited edition, which the renowned watchmaker IWC presented in the year 2010.
This Perpetual Calendar is surely a remarkable piece of micro engineering. Comprising several hundred parts, a perpetual calendar module quite literally counts the days, taking into account the variations of days in each month. This is a watchmaking complication so intelligent that it recognises leap years, one so precise that if it is maintained it will not need adjustment until March 1st 2100 – and only then because this will be a secular year and not, as ruled by the Gregorian calendar, be a leap year.
This latest Portuguese Perpetual Calendar has been given a tasty colourway, a rich blue dial combined with an 18 carat rose gold case.
Besides, it features a slightly smaller 42.3mm case, which, yet, has been just big enough to accommodate the generously proportioned IWC Calibre 51613 with Albert Pellaton’s winding system in this case, capable of a 7-day power reserve, mechanically restricted to ensure high precision.
This is a great watch which can tell you everything you need to know — time, date, day, month, year and what the moon is doing. Moreover, it meanwhile manages to look handsome and elegant.
Presented on a black alligator strap, the IWC Portuguese Perpetual Calendar 2010 is in Limited Edition of only 100 pieces.
I don’t know how you exactly feel when you see these key chaines created by the famous fashion house of Gucci, but I want to say something to the brand, “OK. You win, again.” This time it beats me with this new collection of key chains is the shapes of animales, like whale, pig and parrot, and it has got a cute name – Gucci Zoo. I always love Gucci, but news about it is quite few. I am actually very excited to find this out. These items have captured my heart when I first saw them. Each of them is simply adorable, but personlly I love the Parrots that make up a couple. But the pig is also so cute that I just can not make a choice.
Seen from the pictures, they are rather recognizable as key chains from Gucci, due to the classic GG canvas. They have presented me with a perfect combination fo attractive colored leather and the iconic GG patterns. Have a closer look and you will find that some of them are in fact mini wallets. Being accented in pastel colors, they are perfect for the upcoming spring weather. With a logo-filled design, these leather accessories can be found in a variety of zoo-tastic shapes. Whether you wear it as a charm on your purse or use it as a wallet, these super cute and stylish Gucci Zoo Key Chains will absolutely greatly add to your charm.
Now how do you think about them? I myself just can’t wait to get one of these playful Gucci Zoo key chains!
Sometimes a casual decision made in a moment can lead to masterpiece, such as the new print ad of the famous watch company Hublot. I should admit the ad is really interesting that it managed to catch me to see what the hell has happened to the man. Well, he turns out to be Bernie Ecclestone, the CEO of Formula One. It is said that he was recently mugged in London by thieves who made off with £200,000 worth of valuables including a Hublot watch that he was wearing at the time. Word is that Bernie resisted and fought back, but sustained some ugly injuries during the attack.
Not without a sense of humour, Ecclestone took a photo of himself and sent it to Hublot’s CEO Jean-Claude Biver the same day with the message, “See what people will do for a Hublot.” Then Ecclestone have decided to make the actual photo the centerpiece of a Hublot print ad. I am not sure the watch that appears on the ad is the exact one that Ecclestone was wearing, but this should be a triumph of dark humour.
The pair thought it would make an amusing if macabre, one-off advert which appeared in the Financial Times and the International Herald Tribune on December 8 and 9 respectively. The ad showed the original photo along with Ecclestone’s pithy caption. And Hublot said the advert will not be repeated.
