- - HTW | Mustard-Coloured Pants - -

Hello!

I am definitely feeling a lot better than I was yesterday morning ( /today...it's almost 1am right now). I'm going to resist the urge to give you a whole back story to this post, and just say that I was playing around with Polyvore and I think what I'll try from time to time is to create "How to Wear..." sets.

Today's HTW set is dedicated to mustard-coloured pants.

As a sales associate, I often find customers having difficulties finding pairings for mustard-coloured items (especially pants). Below, I've shared some ideas of a few basic pairings:

...and now I'm off to bed. Thank you for reading! :)

- - Studded Belt & Neck Scarf - -

To officially begin my blog, I'd like to share the outfit that I wore to work yesterday.

There are days when I like to go back to my favourite black & white basics. To spice up this outfit, I added a studded belt and a navy scarf. The neck scarf is actually a pocket square! In my next post I'll share my favourite way of tying square scarfs. To finish off the outfit I slipped on a pair of black kitten heels from Naturalizer.

As you can see - nothing too crazy! There are a few things I could've changed about this outfit (which is something you are welcome to try with your pieces at home):
1) Neck scarf  = red
2) Different colour belt (preferably red!)
3) Bright red lips :)
4) Perhaps red heels (Love these) and/or a red purse to match (something like this)

I think red is a great colour for black & white pairings, but do feel free to experiment with other pops of colour.

 It might be a bit difficult to see the outfits in my pictures, so I think I'll keep creating outfit sets on polyvore from now on.

Please excuse the quality of my not-an-iPhone-phone!

A quick thought -- I think it would be awesome to match up a studded belt with a studded heel (not necessarily for work, haha).
