I've seen a lot of posts about breaking the whole don't wear brown and black together "rule". Figured I'd give it a try. I think this looked much better in person than it does in the photos, but maybe not. Definitely out of my comfort zone and I feel like I'm having an off week with the whole fashion thing, but I will
not give up (yet). Luckily, it was a comfy outfit. I highly recommend corduroy leggings - soft and comfy! Maybe this needs a thin belt at the waist or a longer cardi or something? Or maybe I just need a stylist!
Sorry about the photos, I'm still headless
and tripodless. Perhaps I got prematurely excited about Dolica sending me a free replacement part. Arrrrgh.

My next job to tackle is accessories. I've never been big on necklaces, earrings, etc., but I see how they can really make an outfit. Hoping to find some nice pieces to tie my wardrobe together. Would love some recommendations - particularly for Etsy sellers. I love supporting independent artisans.
LMAO b/c I'm so one of those people who don't feel comfy wearing brown and black together... It's either or for me. Your outfit looks good though as you broke it up with a print top.
ReplyDeleteI swear we are so much alike as I hardly ever wear jewelry either... once in a while I'll wear earrings... but usually it's just my wedding rings.
Hope you had a great weekend!!!
I love black and brown together... but that's me. I like contrast. And I agree that your top ties the two together.
ReplyDeleteI haven't ordered too much jewelry on Etsy, aside from my Carolyn Buss pieces. I usually like to throw mix and match pieces of jewelry together that I find on clearance and that I make myself— I can't get away with wearing too much because of the kids.
Check out clearance jewelry at Cost Plus World Market... I just got a cute pair of sterling silver "ladder" earrings for $7.
