Contrast Tuxedo's: Mad for Monochrome

via FGR (Grazia Germany)

Am in love with all the jewel tones coming through for Autumn/winter, but right now all I can think about are chic, tuxedo's, specifically white tux jackets with a contrast lapel.
I can't imagine a tux ever going out of style, it's super slick & I just love the idea of making a tux look ultra feminine by teaming it with a stunning sparkly bodice as above.

Guys & Dolls: The Tuxedo

Remember one of fashions most incredible creations, the YSL's Le smoking Tuxedo? Well, it seems that celebs of late have been snapped stepping out in this timeless classic style.
Wearing a shirt and tie is definitely a great alternative for fashion bunnies who want to make a statement and not wear the usual party frock. Just make sure you wear with the highest of heels!
