another time around. cake.


here's cake's holiday to wedding look. she took her b+w sequin dress and played up the graphic design pattern be keeping the rest of her look simple. she picked a crisp white coat with gold button details, sleek black tights & pumps, and an over sized clutch.

to rack of some fun points she made sure her tights weren't basic black opaque tights; instead, she opted for a tight with subtle pattern!!! plus, the bow detail can be worn in front of back. how cool!  and then her all over sequin clutch make sure you can't miss her from across the room. we mean come on, an all sequin dress paired with more sequin- *bling, sparkle, bling* HA!

hope you all enjoyed our posts about how to transition from one look to another! if you have any suggestions for future "how to transition" posts we'd love to hear 'em & help you out!!!
have a great weekend.

x&o.

cake & valley.
