Hello! I recently collaborated with Richmond creatives, Hannah Carroll and Elissa Rumford, for a photoshoot for Hannah's brand, Elements of Society, which will be launching soon. For this shoot, I modeled one of Elements of Society's prettiest vintage dresses: this eye-catching red beauty. I love its slightly off-the-shoulder silhouette, fiery red hot color and luxurious satin texture. 

I played up the elegant vintage vibes of this look by slipping on a couple pair of statement vintage Chanel necklaces, portrait earrings and a gorgeous golden ring. I also accessorized with a chic pair of cat-eye sunglasses, a sleek watch and white heeled sandals. A swipe of matte red lipstick perfected the look.

Keep an eye on Elements of Society to shop this dress when it becomes available for sale.

Hello! I pulled out one of my favorite little black dresses from my wardrobe for this look because hey- you can never go wrong with a little black dress, am I right? The dramatic sleeves and flattering silhouette of this dress make it a good go-to when I'm stuck figuring out what to wear time and time again.

I've already styled the dress for my blog a couple times before (which you can see here and here) so I really wanted to switch things up for this look. I decided to play around with layering and emphasize the dramatic nature of the dress' sleeves by slipping on a cozy mustard yellow sweater.

I complemented the yellow hue of the sweater with a green and yellow vintage scarf worn around my neck. I added another touch of green to the look with a pair of green sunglasses, green wedges and a green purse. A golden necklace and bold red lipstick perfected the look.
