Black & Blue Blonde
About this Look
A black dress in summer needs a pop of color. We went to Crystal Bridges today and I knew we would be touring the grounds as part of the architecture tour so I was hoping to see the Arkansas state butterfly Diana Fritillary. The males are black with bright orange markings but the females are black and blue. The 2 amazing colors of Chanel Vernis from the 2013 L’ETE DE PAPILLON DE CHANEL collection plus the light blue in NYC Cosmetics City Duet (Yankee Blue) and blue accessories harmonize to make the color scheme. MAC RiRi Woo is the accent color. Much as I’d love to have added a coral lip, my skin only loves the cool tones. We didn’t see the butterfly but I enjoyed flitting around in the flowers.
