spotlight on: Maita.
ladies and gentlemen, let me formally introduce my good friend Maita. i can truly say she's one of the most chica girls in school. this is what she wore today.
what do you think?
the inspiration for this look are said to be the editors and stylists attending Fashion Week. they're known to wear black at runway shows, as not to clash with the designers' creations. it's supposedly the safest color one can wear at such events.
certainly Maita would've blended right in,
if that was the case.
sporting an all black ensemble could be difficult. on an ordinary day, the first challenge is to avoid looking dull. the second one would be to shun away from looking like a mourner. that's why it's important to have different textures in your outfit. as you can see, the soft shiny details of her top goes well with the hard tailored look of her jacket.
choosing the right accessories is also essential to the success of your desired look. the cosmopolitan design of her YSL bag paired with the offbeat style of her studded shoes gave her that edgy sophisticated appeal that i'm sure she was aiming for.
