style sketch redux: Breakfast at Tiffany’s goes Goth

An animated gif of a style sketch, with a watercolor-style black mini dress with a high neck and short sleeves and a photo of a pair of spiky silver-colored statement chandelier earrings (the Garland Earrings by Wraptillion). Animated text on image reads: start with you fav black mini dress; add edgy statement earrings; + sleek black mules + sunglasses (or cat eyeliner) + messy updo = Breakfast at Tiffany's goes Goth; style sketches by wraptillion

One of my fav summer black style sketches — now in animated GIF form! Here’s the original — and here are more of my style sketches! Have fun planning some future outfit ideas!

Style sketch of a loose black mini dress with short sleeves and a high collar, paired with Wraptillion's spiky chandelier Garland Earrings. Text on image reads: + sleek black mules + huge sunglasses (or cat eyeliner) + messy updo = Breakfast at Tiffany's goes Goth.

(This style idea was inspired by Everlane‘s Shirred Mini Dress (sadly discontinued now), paired with Wraptillion’s Garland Earrings. When I’m sketching, I love using my custom croquis (a personalized fashion sketching template) from MyBodyModel to “try out” new outfit ideas!)

I’ve never really seen mini dresses as part of my personal style… but sketching out this floaty little black one is making me wonder if it could be! I always like something spiky and edgy to balance out a softer, sweeter look (the Garland Earrings here), and something sleek and modern (simple, classic black mule slides would do the trick for summer.) That took this style sketch in kind of a Mod + Goth direction, leading me to… Breakfast at Tiffany’s goes Goth! (I kind of love it.) So many possibilities… Classic wine nails, the Trellis Bracelet, cuban-heel stockings or a great ankle tattoo… Sometimes it’s so fun to play outside my personal style lane and try something new!

Inspired by this Shirred Mini Dress from Everlane, though I’d prefer shorter sleeves.

easy summer style sketch: 1 dress, 2 colors, 6 ways

Style sketch of Everlane's Luxe Cotton Side-Slit Tee Dress in brown and black, with 6 styles of Wraptillion's modern chainmail earrings.

Decisions, decisions… Sometimes I just can’t decide which outfit ideas inspire me most! Classic Circling earrings, or botanical-inspired Mechanical Garden chandeliers? Rich mahogany brown, or simple black? For this style sketch, I kept things simple with one cap-sleeve modern tee dress, in two easy-to-wear neutral colors (similar to Everlane’s Luxe Cotton Side-Slit Tee Dress)…and then went wild with earring choices! (Let’s not even start with shoes… I really think you could wear anything from sneakers to heels with these!)
