Ms. Aikasha is wearing an Indigo Red black silk ribbed knit dress, Flavio Castellini gold silk shrug, Mary Atkins red suede/gold embellished sling-back pumps and an Adrienne Vittadini black calf hair handbag. Red rhinestone drop earrings, black and black/gold bangles and Patrizia Pepe black rimless shades complete this look.

“Back to School Night”. I had to leave work early today to attend the aforementioned for my 16 year old son. He didn’t want to go and tried to convince me that it was a ‘waste of my time’. Hmmmmmm. A little back story:

Historically, my head would spin every third week of September because I was attending “Back-to-School” Night for four kids, and an occasional grandchild, three or four days out of that one week!! As my kids graduated and went on to college……………..

 

That being said, I’m sure you can understand how bewildered I was that this kid was trying to convince me otherwise. I simply pulled the “Mummy said so” trump card and we went. He made me soooooo proud – his teachers raved about him!! After all was said and done, I think he was pretty glad he came J.

Rewind to last week – my 13 year old son (and youngest child) decided it wasn’t necessary for me to attend his "Back to School Night"- so he didn’t tell me about it. I’m still dealing with him on that one!!

Tip: Color blocking - term for wearing a few solid colors together and making it work

Note: How black is this Adrienne Vittadini calf hair bag? Now, that's Black!!
