Growze dress, Asos hat, rolled up Echo tote bag, vintage sunglasses, Timo Weiland for Tsubo "Tarata" heels

Finding new ways to wear things is one of my absolute favorite pastimes. You guys might recall this coolio Echo tote from my finals week survival post, and here it is again! Only this time, I've rolled it up into a clutch. Nifty, eh? I'm going to try & convert my endless array of tote bags in this way from now on!

To contrast the high octane color and intricate patterns of the bag, I decided to wear something vampy and moody. Anytime I wear this Growze maxi dress, I get asked about where it's from. I can't help but love its simplicity and straight-forward design. Growze is really great for pieces that are über cool and edgy, right up my alley.

Oh, and these shoes.
These miraculously wonderfully lovely Tsubo heels that are sporty and stream-lined and utilitarian and edgy and awesome all at once. Oh, and comfortable, can't forget that. You know a heel is perfectly crafted when you can survive a whole day in them after a month of not wearing heels at all! I love the spike closure detailing on these, a very nice touch indeed.

Wow, love the dress but the clutch and shoes are TDF! I'm following on bloglovin now!

Freakishly elegant, chic, modern and classic. Perhaps it's the eternal allure of all-black, or the way you've whittled the look down to the essentials, but it looks breathtakingly stylish, un-trendy and absolutely wearable.
