Who says neutrals have to be boring?! Don't let the clothes outshine your usual effervescence. As I've said before: clothes, while awesome, should only ever be used to enhance the beauty that is already there. otherwise you're just hiding and doing yourself a great injustice. And hurting my eyes in the process! Not only is this outfit great for a casual Friday, its also sharp, fitted & easy to take from day to night. (Don't get me wrong: for a 'proper' Friday night out I'd go in a much..um...flirtatious. But for a few drinks and laughs out, this isn't bad. Getting off track...anyhoo...mixing neutrals can be just as fun as mixing patterns and textures. For this outfit each piece lends itself to another and ultimately ties the whole thing together. The creamy pink in the blazer hints to the sweater, which is broken up by a solid dark wash jean, etc, etc... Another thought, this outfit is picture ready. Ever afraid that the picture you take today will make you cringe a year or so from now? Well, neutrals, combined with a classic silhouette 'keeps it simple stupid.' Now, do me a favor: think back to a few years ago and now reflect on today's styles & trends. Ok, and now project a few years into the future. Would you be embarrassed if you saw a picture of you in this outfit? That's what I thought. Not every outfit has to be bling-tastic, but if it makes you feel that way while not tormenting my eyes; why not?
