就是像我这样热爱色彩的人也不得不承认，一身黑是最稳当通向时髦的捷径。当然，为了避免产生悲痛的联想，在黑中灌输一些有趣出彩的元素也是很有必要。这身全黑的搭配都源自于这个新的Carven背包。极简的线条和巧妙的硬件设计虽然不是当下最流行的，但却让我一见倾心。回头想想自己最喜爱的衣物配饰，其实都是忽视了潮流，随自己心买下的，百用不厌。

It's really quite rare for me to wear a lot of black since I love colours, patterns and things that glitter! But once in a while, even I have to admit that black is probably the most universally flattering colour for most people, and the fast track to look instantly chic and smart.

My all black outfit consisted of:

// Crinkle Effect Midi Dress from H&M (ON SALE!) //

// Cape Style Blazer (similar) from Lavish Alice on ASOS //

// Trainers (similar) from Nike.com //

// Bag from Carven on VeryExlusive.com //

And before I'm off, I have to blab a bit about my new found love for this bag from Parisian brand Carven. When I saw it on display at Fenwick, Bond Street, I fell completely in love. The quality and feel to this bag is just beautiful with its minimal/normcore design; decent size and capacity contrary to most of the "IT" bags at the moment. And the design of the buckle is so simple yet smart. Everything about this bag shouts understated style and practicality. For me, I knew I was in love when I had to have something knowing there was nothing trendy about it. And that was exactly the case with this lovely Carven Bag.
