The oxidised embellishments tie it all together, adding just the right touch of edge to the elegance. The sleek skirt tones down the drama just enough, letting the silhouette do quiet, confident talking. And let’s give those emerald studs the appreciation they deserve. They perfectly complement the look without stealing the spotlight from that show-stopping blouse.
