Deco Blue

Posted 20th August 2008

So much about this outfit seems reminiscent of the Art Deco forms of the 1920's and it all happened by accident as I tracked down and rummaged out pieces to mix and match with these sensational new shoes by Tesla Miles. Please check them out as the color choices are wonderful.

There's a superstition that peacock feathers are unlucky, especially if brought into a house and mythology tells us that the peacock hates gold and will not go near it, so I may be breaking a few taboos here, but I think it is worth it!

The combination of the rich clay brown and chinese blue is one of my very favorites. I wouldn't usually add in white as a third color but I think it works OK and the vibrant gold tones sprinkled throughout help to hold it all together.
