WIW - neutral and white

Anonymous

So, I tried this first with a soft blue top I had (similar to color of AviaMariah). Took it off and reminded myself why I almost never wear it. May need to move it along. This is my only gray right now, besides winter weight. Would love to find another gray top, since I like it on myself as a neutral. Most of my tops are dark in color.

Top - Loft
Jeans - gap girlfriend tall
Shoes - SE petty in putty

This looks great- love the addition of the necklace. I so need a pair of light brown booties.

This is a very summer fit to me. Loving the grey on you.

Cute! This is a lovely, soft color palette on you. Brings attention to your hair and face right away, especially with the necklace. Can also see that light blue would work nicely too.

Very pretty --very nicely done. I have such a hard time looking pulled together without another layer and you have done so brilliantly.

Hey, you look fabulous!
I think the necklace really pulls it together.

I love this look, the boots, the necklace...all of it.

Thank you. I noticed my clothing has gotten very dark over the last several years. I'm going to try to find some neutral, lighter colored tops when I'm out shopping in the future.

Because I live in a warm climate, I can't really utilize a topper or third piece to pull an outfit together. Instead, I rely on necklaces to help complete an outfit.

I so hear you on using a necklace as the 3rd piece!!

I especially love the fit of the jeans on you!!

Dakotacheryl - I tried on lots of white jeans, so yay that I found some that ended up working.

As an aside - since I rarely wear white jeans compared to darker jeans, I have newly realized how much more wrinkles show on white jeans. I can wear regular jeans several times before washing (assuming fit and fabric content is ideal for me), but white jeans are a one wear only item. Does everyone else find that the same? Plus, there is also the white can get dirtier factor. I was thinking about white jeans for a trip, but am going to rule them out for the washing reason. I am trying to take minimal (for me) luggage.

Cute! The light palette is so fresh.

The laundry problem is a real issue with white jeans, and I agree that they are risky in a travel capsule for that reason.

Love this outfit and agree with others that the colors are really nice with your hair and skin. White bottoms do require more laundry time, but they look great!
