Heidi from Literate and Stylish and Marissa from The Modern Austen are hosting their yearly Pantone-inspired fall color challenge. For those of you unfamiliar with Pantone, they are the ultimate authority in color. They declare a color of the year as well as the seasonal "it" colors. Heidi and Marissa have chosen to feature one of the fall 2014 colors each day this week, and today we are celebrating cypress, a dark olive color. While olive is a really versatile neutral, I don't own much in this color. Thank goodness I dug-out this cypress Everlane tee upon which to build my outfit!
I'm also excited to link-up with Andi of Just Another Smith and her co-host Danielle from Goodwillista for one of Andi's famous theme weeks. This week blazers are in the spotlight. Can you believe that I didn't used to like blazers?!? I am now convinced it was because I was choosing the wrong fits and fabrics for my shape. This is the blazer that changed my mind! The fit is feminine and the fabric is oh so comfy...not stiff at all!
This entire outfit was inspired by the cypress t-shirt and the blazer. At first I wasn't sure about such a boring, neutral outfit (not that neutrals have to be boring). Then I discovered that this jeweled necklace pulled-out all of the right colors in the ensemble!
You may notice that these are not my typical type of blog photos. I took advantage of a trip to LOFT and used their humongous mirrors for an impromptu photo shoot. The sales girl probably wondered why it was taking me so long to try on the clothes! Check back next week to find-out what inspired this fun afternoon shopping trip!
What I'm Wearing:
T-Shirt: Everlane (exact)
