What I Wore 56: Peach and Gold

One time at Nordstrom a sales associate told me I was "a winter," which meant that I should always dress in jewel tones. I get that and everything, but I'm still a pretty huge fan of neutrals--black, white, grey, and lots of shades of peach or tan.

This dress is one of my favorites--it's another BCBGeneration sale find from my time living down the street from Mall of America, and I feel like it's perfect for work, lunch, a party, even a bridal or baby shower. 

I'm still on the hunt for a perfect blazer or leather jacket, and once I find it, I think this dress would transition really nicely into fall and even winter.

What I Wore 51: Restyling Old Clothes

I have to confess that, while I love sharing personal style inspiration here on the blog, I'm really not much of a shopper--everything I'm wearing in these photos (with the exception of jewelry)  is at least two years old. I don't hate shopping, I just love a lot of things that I already own; and I enjoy restyling old pieces into new outfits, which is what I did here with this black skirt and white top. I had actually never paired this shirt with anything but jeans, and voilà--a new outfit!

These pairings always make me think I could pull off a capsule wardrobe (still something I've been flirting with), but when it comes time to get rid of stuff I haven't worn in a while, I start to have trouble. I haven't worn this skirt in at least two years, but when I pulled it out of my closet the other day I was so happy to have it. It felt like I was shopping in my own wardrobe--which I'm pretty sure is the philosophical enemy of the capsule wardrobe, but whatever. That's something to figure out another day.
