Red and Black and Tan All Over

This color combination isn't new by any  means, but I couldn't remember the last time I paired them together, and I also couldn't remember the last time I wore this blazer in an outfit post - both sad things that needed to be remedied right away.





I'm Wearing
J. Crew Factory blazer
Gap silky button down
J. Crew ivory belt
Michael Kors watch
HoH inspired necklace, online group deal (via Facebook I think?)
Black clovers necklace, NYC Soho street vendor
Gap pants
Jessica Simpson (via DSW) leopard pumps

I couldn't decide which necklace I wanted to wear with this outfit, so I tried them both on at the same time and ended up liking them together - love it when that happens, it makes the decision so much easier.  I think that's the secret to accessory layering - just randomly try stuff on together until it looks good.  Actually that might be my entire getting-dressed philosophy... but let's pretend like there's more to it than that, shall we???

  1. Ooh I love those 2 necklaces together!!! Great idea to pair them :) This is such a classic outfit - I really need more tailored shirts like this!

    1. Thanks Bri! The shirt is actually kind of meh and floppy on its own, but it's pretty decent under a blazer - layering FTW! :)

  2. I've layered my necklaces like that a couple times as well and love it!! :) Really like your HoH (inspired) one.

    Like the tan blouse with this for sure...unique but still a classic.

    1. Thanks Tracy! :) I liked the tan blouse with this too, felt a little different than the usual white button-down.
