My Style: A Modern Twist

Today's Look:  is a modern twist on the old classic, a pair of blue jeans and a white shirt.  The combination of a white top with a pair of blue jeans will forever be in style, but the individual pieces themselves have changed throughout the decades.  The blue jeans have become lower-cut and bedazzled while the shirts are continuously evolving.  Starting out, I picked a faded pair of dark blue skinny jeans and an off-white crochet, embellished top. To match the color and metal on the top, I wore tarnished gold earrings, an off-white bracelet, and two rings.  Finishing off the look the look, I wore brown leather boots with my fringe suede purse.

Fashion Tip:   When in doubt or in a rush, a white blouse with a pair of blue jeans is always a solid choice.  

My Style: Paisley & Crochet

Today's Look:  is all about the patterns of the multicolored dress and the off-white crochet crop-top.  The dress has a wild paisley design with flowers of all different shades of blue along with specs of green, yellow, and white.  The crop-top has a crochet pattern of leaves and flowers.  Since the dress is sleeveless, I wore the crop-top over the dress to add modesty as well as style.  To add a little edge to the sweet ensemble, I wore a thick, dark forest green bracelet covered in tarnished-gold metal studs.  Finishing off the look, I wore my fringed purse, navy thong sandals, and metal feather tarnished gold earrings.

My Style: Black with Brown

Today's Look:  is all about breaking the "don't wear black with brown" rule.  To start the outfit off, I picked out my '60s inspired crochet, black mini dress.  Since the dress is pretty short and I wanted to wear boots, black opaque tights were appropriate.  I wore my leather OTBT Petaluma boots in New Brown and matched them with my suede fringed purse.  Finishing off the look, I added one of my favorite tarnished gold necklaces.

Fashion Tip:  When wearing black with brown, wear a lighter brown to make the browns and blacks stand out without fighting.
