What follows is evidence that DC is so pretty, as well as that travelling with bright pieces can be a great alternative to sticking with neutrals.
Marni for H&M jacket, Mango mesh cutout tee, J Crew Minnie pants, Ferragamo My Joy ballerina flats, Hermes bag and bracelets, Ray Ban special edition wayfarers, Michael Kors watch
Karen Walker for Anthropologie Dolly Chambray Dress, J Crew necklace (sim), Red Valentino sandals (on sale here, here and here)
Lilly Pulitzer Jacqueline shift dress (sim)
Colour or print-mixing is generally an exercise in experimentation. My only advice - keep one item colour-free. My neutral footwear that weekend hopefully prevented me from looking as if a rainbow threw up on me.
Further proof that the Marni collaboration was the best thing H&M has done- that jacket plays so well with these different pieces! The bright brights was an excellent choice, and I am in awe of the brilliant and fearless layering with the cottage blouse! Bravo- now that's an excellent example of smart outfit planning...
ReplyDeleteI love how you styled the cottage blouse Usha!!! It looks beautiful with the bold blue and pink!! I always tend to wear it that blouse with neutrals so thank you for the inspiration!! The yellow shift dress is adorable too!!
ReplyDeleteI find myself getting bolder with my color choices more and more. They seem to put me in a good mood :)
ReplyDeleteI wished I was in DC when you came to visit! In any case, I think all your outfits were great - bright and fun. And erm, so loving your H Evelyne!
ReplyDeleteLove how you styled that dress. Lovely pictures.
