Black dress look 3: with a Peter Pan collar top


Today I'm showing the third variant of wearing a basic black dress. After putting on a piece of clothing over the dress in previous looks, this time I tried to wear one under it. As the dress is sleeveless and collarless, to wear something with sleeves and a collar seemed like a good idea. My choice fell on a raspberry-red Peter Pan collar top. I know many women consider Peter Pan collared clothes suitable only for young girls. Apparently, they are too sweet and too girly. Not for me. In my opinion this type of a collar gives feminine, soft and romantic vibe to the look. And what bad is it in looking feminine, soft and romantic at any age?


With the top underneath and added belt my black dress looks like a new, different dress. Raspberry-red shoes and a colourful bag add more colour and dilute the blackness.


The silver dragonfly set with garnet stones is one of my favourite pieces. It can be worn as a brooch or as a pendant. Look at the intricate filigree work.

  3. Wow!!! Very fun and feminine look!!! You look great in this outfit! !! I love the way you combined everything so well and that dragonfly is a lovely detail!!!! I agree with you about Peter Pan collars and that nothing wrong with looking feminine, soft and romantic at any age. You also look very slim, that raspberry belt shows off your belt nicely! If I didn't know it was that same black dress I would have thought it was some different dress with a collar. Great way of wearing black dress!!!

  5. I do agree about peter pan collars, I wear them myself and I'm not exactly a girl anymore either:) Another thing I agree about is how that dress looks completely different with that shirt underneath...and the colourful accessories really make a difference. I like how you paired those coloured sandals and belt to give this black dress more dynamic....and the bag is fabulous!

    I was recently given one long black dress and I also wear it with accessories to make it more fun:)

  7. Lovely! This dress has so much potential, and you explore it beautifully in such very different looks. This one is the most playful and adorable, and delicately sensual. The intricate brooch, as well as this wild bag are so very YOU! Yes, you definitely are a wild traditionalist too! :) Love the PP collar - I need one myself! xxx

  8. I'm not usually a fan of the Peter Pan collar but in this case I love it! The pink looks great with the black, makes it flirty and fun. Those sandals are gorgeous. x

  9. I personally find black dresses an absolute nessecity in my closet. I can almost wear anything I own with it. Maybe not all looks special but almost. This is the magic of the black dress. If you strech your inagination you can come up with 3 more easily.I like how you run the pink through your accessories. The dragon fly design genious! Is it still rocking in Nepal?
