Deciding what to wear to the SARTO daytime fashion show garden party event last week took some deliberation. My problem was twofold - I had received a brand-spanking-new monochrome HAT from Coccinelle that I desperately wanted to wear but the dress code was colourful and chic. Whilst this hat is most definitely chic, colourful it ain't. You might be thinking that I could have simply opted for lots of colour in my clothes but monochrome does not always work terribly well with lots of colour and patterns which is what I kept coming up with as options I was happy with wearing. A normal person would have simply forfeited the hat..but normality is something I've never staked a claim to.
The next problem was that I then wanted to wear a sweater...but not everyone would constitute a sweater as chic and thank god I had decided against this as when I woke up that morning it was oh so terribly hot.....
So after this back and forth deliberation over the span of a few weeks, I started building an outfit head down, I found this DKNY linen dark blue/black dress with a HUGE bow that ties at the back that I decided looked great with the hat...and for colour.....I realised I already owned the perfect accessories - a new huge red and gold necklace (also from Coccinelle) and my 30th birthday present from Paris (last January) that I had actually never taken out to play - a gorgeous MATELASSÉ MIU MIU BAG.
