Diamond Girl: Lace Double-Breasted Blazer, White Culottes, Clear Pumps with Rhinestone Toe, Vintage Ferragamo Envelope Clutch and DE BEERS Diamonds

on

Diamonds are a girl’s best friend.

I don’t know about you, but I’m still basking in the glory of knowing a regular American girl just became a princess. #dreamscometrue

In celebration of the Royal Wedding, De Beers hosted a private event to introduce their latest bridal collection and I had the pleasure of  trying on princess worthy-diamonds (including the most spectacular 42 carat diamond necklace and 30 carat diamond engagement ring)  while sipping champagne.  Like I said, #dreamscometrue.

For the event, I wanted  a modified royal wedding guest ensemble and opted for a tailored, garden-party inspired but elegant look with a little NYC flare.  To create the look, I paired  a romantic double-breasted lace blue blazer from PINKO (currently on SALE!) with white wide-leg culottes (yes, they are the same pair that I have been wearing again and again – one of favorite, most versatile pair of trousers – I’ve worn them with everything from a simple t-shirt to a glitzy top to this blazer).  To give the outfit a little edge, I wore white acrylic large hoop earrings and the PERFECT pair of rhinestone toe clear stiletto pumps.  Finally, I carried a vintage Ferragamo envelope clutch and wore black classic cat-eye sunglasses. 

Style Tip: Try wearing your blazer in a nontraditional way by forgoing a layered look and making the blazer a top. For a super sleek silhouette, pin the lapels to your desired neckline.  For a sexy look, try wearing your blazer with a delicate worthy-to-be-seen bra.

Wide leg culottes should always be above the ankle to ensure the create height and length.
