Leopard & Neutrals

Happy Friday everyone!!!
Jeans:  Target (Available here)
Blouse:  New York & Company
Today, I mixed my cognac coated denim with a chiffon leopard print top and black cardigan.
Cardigan:  LOFT Petites (Similar here)
Shoes:  Target
I love the mix of cognac, ivory, and black.  The leopard print, texture of the jeans, and bangles add visual interest.
Scarf:  Paul Harris (15+ years old)
Bangles:  The Limited, Claire's, Target
The scarf added needed warmth while also providing a shot of flattering ivory which really brightens the face.
Tote:  The Limited (Similar here)
Do you like mixing neutrals?

Falling for Camel

One of my favorite autumnal color palettes is camel and ivory.  It's sophisticated and rich looking, but what I love most is the softness of the two colors together.  In a season of burgundy, navy, and forest green, camel and ivory are fall's pastels.

Purse:  The Limited
So, today, I paired camel pants that I recently purchased with ivory favorites - a sequined blouson-style top and blazer.
Blazer:  The Limited
Ring:  H&M (Available in stores
)

The orange bag adds a pop of fall color.
What is your favorite fall color combination?  What colors do you like to wear with camel?

Fashion by Bob Ross: Fall Color Inspiration

Happy Friday!!
Purse:  The Limited
Shoes:  Target
Today, I was very inspired by fall colors.  I have always loved watching Bob Ross do his amazing artwork on "The Joy of Painting", and I especially love the autumnal nature scenes that he painted.

The mix of browns, yellows, oranges, reds, and greens is just so lovely!
So with all these gorgeous fall colors in mind, I paired my cognac coated denim with a silky citrine blouse, chocolate brown blazer, and orange bag.

Blouse:  The Limited (Available here)
Pants:  Target (Available here)
I got these jeans around the same time as my black ones, but I've had more trouble deciding what to wear with them.  I don't have a lot of browns and warmer colors in my wardrobe, but I was drawn to these pants and their possibilities.

I'd like to find a sweater or blazer that works better with the cognac than this deep brown, but sometimes you have to work with what you have.
Ring:  The Icing
I added this cool snake ring and burgundy nails for one more pop of fall color.

Happy Fall.  Enjoy all the "happy little trees"!!  ;-)
