Sometimes inspiration comes from the most random details. Like the other day, I was driving to work and saw a woman on the street wearing cobalt and black together and I loved it. Seems so simple but I was pretty sure I had never tried it.
Fortunately for me and my very colorful wardrobe, I had the cobalt J. Crew skirt you see below (it's old, but I just picked up this style in two colors - or splurge on this lookalike) and had just picked up this sheer plaid top at the Topshop sale for just 20 bucks. I also had a really fun black feather necklace on from H&M, but once we tried to photograph it outside the wind blew the feathers straight into my face until I had enough and just took it off. It only made it into the first photo. Ah, the joys of the windy city.
If you are looking for a pleated skirt for the summer, try these out. I'm loving this one that is a lookalike of the one I missed out on at Zara. This striped one here is to die for too!

Inspiraton really does come from all over! I love this combination, mixing neutrals is always so sophisticated.

Funny how I wear so little black that I forget that it exists let alone acts as a neutral!
DeleteI am obsessed with this look. One question, what brand/color is your lipstick? It really pops

I left a comment on your blog because I couldn't find your email on it. It's a discontinued mac shade but Yu by nars and Candy yum yum by Mac are super similar. Also Schiap by Nars. Hope this helps!
