Black is the New Black

What I'm wearing:
*Black Zara Dress (similar here)
*Blue MICHAEL Michael Kors Platform Sandals (similar here and here)
*Michael Kors Black Oversized Watch (similar here)

So, even if you have only read my blog a couple of times, you probably have noticed that I love color and prints. I know a lot of people like wearing black, but it feels so morbid to me when I wear black head to toe. Unfortunately the uniform at my new part-time position is all black, including shoes. I don't own that many all black clothes!!! Lucky for me, my sister does. This dress is out of her side of the closet. And I decided that this would indeed be the worst post in the world if I just wore this black dress with my black patent flats. So I paired it with these MMK sandals that I would wear if in an ideal world, I could wear whatever shoes I wanted. Oh, and black is so hard to photograph details of! And after seeing these photos, I decided to put in my Gum Paste earrings to add some fun, which can be seen here.

I absolutely *love* the color of these sandals. I don't think I have any shoes in this color and I was happy to find these in the bag of shoes that my sister got for me! The platform makes them surprisingly comfortable. 

I would much rather be wearing one of these great dresses with these sandals instead today:

Ipanema Dress

Know the Ropes Dress

Knotted Poppies Dress

Happy Monday! Hope everyone has a great start to their week!
