Vibrant Violet

Apparently my love for purple didn't end with these pants I wore a few weeks back.  This dress is rather simple in design (which I love), but it's the bold violet color that really makes it stand out from any other dress I own.  If you've been reading my blog, you may know that my favorite shoe style is the Mary Jane.  It's feminine, flirty, elegant and classic.  I paired my dress with my nude platform Mary Jane's that are a much more affordable version of the Christian Louboutin's that I've been admiring.  They're also extremely comfortable which is definitely an added bonus!

{Raoul dress, Steve Madden heels, Chanel clutch}
