I recently received this darling dress from Tailor and Stylist. I am obsessed with the sweetness of it and I was really excited to try pairing it with more alternative pieces. I have been loving the juxtaposition of girly with edgy and thought this was a perfect opportunity to achieve this look. I also couldn’t pass up the chance to don all black and white and then punch it up with a bold red lip!

That flared hem is a really cute addition! I love juxtaposing feminine with edgier, tougher pieces. Somehow it always works, and you’ve done it magnificently!
