{For Fashion's Sake} Saturday: Week Brights

12.18.2010

So, I've noticed that a lot of my fashion post have involved really traditional color, i.e. red, yellow, blue...One of my readers asked for some advice on a less-traditional pallet. 
Hope this helps, Jessica.
I feel like Green, Teal, Brown, Black & White, Red, and Neon Orange are about as far from tradition as I'm gonna get...
That fantasmical whale painting was the first decoration we bought as a married couple. I die everyday I see it...that's how in love i am i with the thing. Thank you UrbanOutfitters.
p.s. we did not pay that much for it.
Mismatched Earrings, just for kicks.
I've tried this so many times, and this is the first day it's worked for me.
The Breakdown:
Cardigan: Vintage $12ish?
Black Scarf: Gift $?
Striped Shirt: Nordstroms $30
Paige Jeans: Buffalo Exchange $19
Boots: Charlotte Russe $5
Leather Belt: J.Crew Sale $18
Feather Earring: Ireland Study Abroad $4
Sequin Earring: Forever21 $4
Red Purse: H&M $12
Watch (face): Walmart $9
Band: J.Crew Sale $3.50

Love it! Thanks so much! I'm not sure I can pull it off as nicely as you do, though. I love your long hair. I envy you-- I tried to do the top knot, but mine is too short still, so I'll just vicariously live my life through your blog.

Love this outfit! I saw you and Marcus at the vintage sale this morning and really wanted to say hello, but then chickened out. I didn't want you to think I was some sort of a crazy staulker! But I was really excited I saw you because I love your blog!
