Hello!  How are you?  What did you do to celebrate New Year's Eve?  I usually enjoy events and then post them afterwards.  How about you? These photos are from New Year's Eve, so I thought I'd do a Throwback Thursday post to show you what I wore.  We were able to snap some photos a little before the celebrating began at our beautiful local Renaissance Hotel.  This was the night to wear sparkly attire, so I  pulled out this beautiful gold/ champagne sequin and black lace dress from Vera Wang that I purchased at Saks.  I was waiting for an event to wear this dress, and New Year's Eve was definitely it. It was raining a lot that day so my hair developed flyaways, but oh well...what can you do about the rain right?  

This bracelet I am wearing is from Deepa Gurnani, a brand I recently discovered and I have to tell you that I am in Love with their work.  This piece was originally a headband, but I thought it was so pretty and matched my dress perfectly, so I wrapped it around my wrist a couple of times and made it into a bracelet accessory.  

What do you think about wearing highly embellished headbands also as bracelets?

  2. I really like your NYE look. The dress is so pretty and feminine. The accessories match it so perfectly. Beautiful earrings, bracelet and clutch- very appropriate for this festive occasion. It is really cool how that bracelet is actually a headband but you turned it into a bracelet. That's the best thing about fashion for me- making it our own. It is all about creativity!

    I celebrated NY at home, with my husband and his family.

  6. Gorgeous! That dress is stunning on you, Joanna! And I really like your heels. It looks like you had a fabulous NYE! We went to a park in Sydney to watch the fireworks over the Harbour - it was neat, but really warm. And my hair look AWFUL by the end of the night. Haha. And I think it's a great idea to use a headband as a bracelet!

    Hope you're having a great week, Joanna!

  16. Nice job with the suttle green lace string on the shoes to add to the coherent color theme.
