a pop of color


i've been struggling with what to wear to the office that is work appropriate, but that doesn't include a black blazer or pants. this weekend i'm hoping to pick up a couple new pieces that aren't black, (i'm officially cutting myself off) so that i can incorporate more color into my work ensembles. outside of work i wear color in almost every outfit, but for some reason when it comes to what i wear to work i struggle with incorporating fun colors, without feeling like it's too much color. i thought this look above had the perfect pop of color, while still being sophisticated and work appropriate. i think the key is straying from black blazers, which are difficult to pair with a colored blouse or pant because it tends to read too harsh. this is where the camel colored blazer comes in!

  1. Let's not forgot to incorporate pattern pants to the mix! Seeing how they're going to be BIG in the fall!
