Splurge or Steal: Blush + Black

 

Varying tones of blush teamed with classic black has long been my go to colour combination. To me, the look is so simple and elegant, especially when paired with gold jewellery. There are so many beautiful blush and black pieces floating around the internet at the moment that I just had to share my favourites, including some affordable pieces and others that may have remain firmly on my dream list for now.

That  ridiculously stunning Rochas handbag for example; absolutely divine, but I'll just have to settle for looking at it lovingly through my browser for foreseeable future. On the other hand, that cute spotted bangle is under $10. Bargain! I'm imagining that second look teamed with dark rimmed eyes and a rich nail polish to toughen up the ladylike cut of that blouse. Those scalloped edges are pretty, but just a touch too sweet for my style as is.

What do you think of a neutral palette? Are you a member of team classic or do you need a pop of colour to keep things interesting?
