What I Wore - Stripes and Converse
Welcome to Neutral City! Apparently neutrals are all you get around here! Several of you requested that I show more color mixing in my outfits and as I prepped this week's posts, I realized how little color I'm actually giving you guys! The neutrals have kind of taken over, so I will try to incorporate more color in the next few weeks and months. I do love colors and pairing colors together, but sometimes I forget to wear them! I am naturally drawn to a quirky mix of neutrals, and bright colors aren't what I reach for. That being said, there are lots of ways to wear color without it being bright or loud or too... colorful? You know what I mean.
As for this outfit, I really love the width and crispness of the stripes on this top. I do not, however, love how tight and stretchy it is. As I attempted to style this fitted tunic, I felt like a denim jacket was a necessary addition to keep things covered. The concept works - medium width black and white stripes, black ponte knit pants, navy Converse and a denim jacket, but I would opt for a less fitted top next time. My favorite part of the outfit is how well our Black Cut-Out Leather Earrings also work with stripes. They almost mimic each other, and I love it.
What colors are you wearing right now? What colors would you like to see styled more?
