When it gets rainy, I prefer to have several elements in an outfit: pants (because I like my legs to be warm and dry), flat shoes with lots of tread (so I don’t slip), and some type of sweater or jacket to keep me warm. I incorporated all of these into today’s outfit, and managed to try out a new to me color combination. I find myself really liking how pale pink, brown and light grey with navy accents looks.
Here’s the original outfit:
T-shirt – Target
Cardigan – Minimalist handknit by me
Necklace – ???
Tote – Re-con by me
Pants – Worthington
Shoes – Aldo
Bangles - Jill Popowich
About 2 minutes after I took these pictures, it started raining, so I changed things up slightly. I added a navy silk scarf to keep me a bit warmer and a shawl pin to secure the cardigan and add a bit of class. Because of the weather, I took pictures indoors, so they aren’t super, but they get the job done. Please excuse the uber grainy-ness.
Silk Scarf: Thrifted
Shawl Pin: Snokist Farm Girl
While I’m okay with the outfit, I would change one element. The black shoes, while practical, don’t fit well with the rest of the color scheme. I would love to wear a pair of navy shoes instead, so add an accent to the bottom half of the outfit as well.
These would have been lovely:
Maybe when I go to Chicago in April…
Be sure to try before you buy … I put those on and immediately felt like Scrooge McDuck in his spats!
That shawl pin is gorgeous – such a find.
You are super talented! I love the cardigan and bag. Shoes are gorgeous too … wonder whether heels like those are harder or easier to walk in.
