Black Silhouette

Unlike typical dinner dates with solitude and pure enjoyment with each other's company this one we had was chaperoned by our toddler. Due to lack of babysitter we're left of no choice but to tag him along. In fairness he made us last from entree to dessert although we had to shorten each course and just barely made it. I had to dress up for the night in black as opposed to our anniversary lunch (previous post) where I wore the whitest of white.

Got this netted dress online, like it because of the see-through contrast in the arm and thigh areas. I know I have to be careful when walking for it not to ride up too much and reveal more skin in the wrong areas :)

 

Guess what's back after 20 years of silence. Yes, it's the choker and it's back with a vengeance. After being so popular in the 90s, now it's trending not only in gold, velvet or leather but in all different colours, fabrics and styles you can imagine. I personally like the black, the thinner the better. It adds a little bit of an edgy vibe to the simplest of looks. I got a pair from Forever 21 both with silver dangling. What I was wearing here was the velvet with a cross.

I tried to keep it in black hue with little pop of colours from my shoes and jewellery. The silver in my purse retained the minimalist look being my blings were on the silver side.

 

 

Now back to how the dinner went, thank God for gadgets and that's what made him survive through his ordeal of not getting out of the high chair.

 You can see how coordinated our drinks were though the white drink in the middle was an odd one out :)

But yea, so glad we reached 'til the end. That was the sweetest chocolate lava cake I've ever had as I almost didn't see and taste it :)
