Two of my favorite colors are black and grey! When done right, it's very dramatic! As usual, you can click on the links above to learn more about the designers. Parker is a designer that is new to me that I'm falling in love with! This Three Ruffle Dress is awesome! I can say this as I have the blouse version of this dress and will actually wear it during an upcoming episode of To Be a Star! This line has so many great feminine qualities that still have a bit of an edge so I would definitely wear this dress to brunch or to an opening (even my 30th bday as it is that cute)! I've talked about Ana Reign before and I love the large cocktail ring and the fact that eyes won't be able to look away at your hand! Jimmy Choo is always a favorite and I love the open look of this 'caged' heel!. You know that I have always been a fan of Ted Rossi and I gave this piece which I wear all the time with tanks and leggings. This adds a lot of texture without the heft due to the skin. To tie in the sleek and the texture look that you're putting together, I love the clutch by Carlos Falchi which has a great print while also blending colors. I truly love that if you opt to do black and grey this is a such a fun way to do it without looking old and dated! Take some time to think about how to do an edgy/flirty look with the LBD!

I adore python and although we have all seen it, I love that just like any other kind of material - it can be reinterpreted! So you know I am a HUGE fan of Ted Rossi so a post like this couldn't be complete without including them. This bag is so drool worthy! I also love Carlos Falchi as he places his artistic touch on this bag (literally as this is a handpainted piece - as a side note he makes all of his bags in NY and they are completely handmade)! Ever since I interviewed him for my first post at See Pretty Things, I always keep my eye out on him. Nancy Gonzalez fuses python and croc to create a fabulous piece that begs to be worn for a night out and with your jeans. Finally, I love that Banana Republic (I find that their accessories are amazing and truly have a high end look) has also created a line of python pieces which look amazing as well. Add some texture and love to your look with these pieces.
