Hey, dear friends! Hope you had a lovely Thanksgiving celebration! It's hard to believe that Christmas is right around the corner now and we are already in December! The last few days it's been raining non-stop here in LA, but it feels like we (LA people) sort of deserve this, because we enjoy the sun all year long :)

On a side note, I wrote another article for Loehmann's blog "Style Vault". This time I am talking about Black and White do's and don'ts and give you multiple tips on rocking monochromatic look in style. Check it out HERE.

It's hard to believe that before opening my blog I was a dedicated fan of "total black" looks. I remember times when friends asked me "But do you have any non-black items in your wardrobe?" With the blog came constant need to explore and try out new styles. I started wearing items I never thought I would. Seriously people, start a blog and you'll see ;) But today I am going back to my love of black in a daring rebel look (obviously a classy rebel ;) ) with the help of Skull Cashmere crop top and fingerless gloves.

And the sunglasses I am wearing are the newest addition to my collection from Atelier Eyewear. They are by far the best fitting sunglasses I have ever had, which is no surprise since they are custom made :) Not only I felt like I designed them myself (I chose the frames and the colors), but I had so much fun playing with their interactive webcam tool. The Ultra tool used my computer's webcam to measure the feature and contours of my face and head. No wonder they come out perfectly fitting! Atelier Eyewear frames are also hand made to achieve the highest quality which is only compatible to luxury designers. You can definitely allow yourself to feel a little "Tom Ford" when designing your own unique pair of Atelier Eyewear! 

There is not a single thing I don't like about this dress from AQAQ: the colors, the print and the shape are just perfect. Love that the waistline is curved to the front making the skirt appear even fuller. I definitely feel like a real lady in this dress :) Accessorized with bright shoes, fun mirrored sunglasses and a lovely key necklace from Saressa Designs with matching color stone.

One of the advantages of living in LA is that sometimes you can get lucky enough to wear a top with open shoulders in December ;)
