Sensible Stylista: winter.colorblocking

winter.colorblocking

Because I'm wearing several layers, I used a belt to cinch my waist. I always make sure to accentuate my shape by belting my outfits! Doing so creates the illusion of a skinnier waistline and longer legs by elongating the body in all right ways.

I'm obsessed with this necklace from J. Crew. I'm such a huge fan of statement jewelry. I definitely need more neon in my collection.

A closer look at my vintage Bally bag.

Tank: Express - old

Bag: Vintage Bally - gifted

Tights: Talbots Factory Outlet

Belt: came with this H&M skirt

Jacket: Michael Kors via Off Saks Fifth

Cardigan: Ann Taylor Factory Outlet - old

Skirt: BCBGMaxAzria Factory Outlet - old

Necklace: J. Crew Factory Outlet

Boots: Asos

Today's outfit post features a colorful look that could brighten up the coldest winter day. I love experimenting with bold prints, vibrant colors, and unique textures. It's all about juxtaposition! I've never paired these colors together before, but I like the way they clash.

What are some of your favorite color combinations?

I wish I was good at colour blocking but it never looks quite right on me. You nailed it though. I am in love with your necklace, Jcrew has such pretty things, but they don't ship to the UK, so sad. That bag is lovely too, so classy, perfect if your name starts with a B.
