Over the past year my style has evolved and with it has come bold colors, bright prints and a lot of texture pieces. As a small town New Englander I have found that fashion trends in my tiny corner of the world don’t usually extend far beyond classic timeless pieces in earthy tones or pastel hues. Patagonia and J. Crew dress at least half of my town, Flannel Fridays at work start in early October ending only once Spring has arrived and everyone owns a pair of bean boots! Don’t get me wrong, my closet is equally occupied with enough flannels to get me through the winter and my bean boots live in our mud room until I’ve replaced them with my Hunter rain boots in April, but nevertheless I don’t always fit that mold. In fact, I find that more often than not I find myself looking straying from the typical New England attire to pieces full of color and detail.
In this place of bright shades and bold details I have found so much happiness! The statement bags, colored tights and big sunglasses have found there way into every online cart i have. I just love them all and have seriously become obsessed! As Valentines Day is fast approaching I have been crushing hard on all the love colors and this combo has been a favorite. My red dress has the most gorgeous detailed paneling on the side that compliments the simplicity of my plum handbag. The length is petite friendly, girlies!
Never in a million years did I expect to stray from the comfort of my neutrals, but I just can’t get enough of it, so here we are! To say that I have stepped out of my comfort zone would be a complete understatement! I hope this inspires you to get the color bug and step out of the status quo. It’s okay to change the standard and it’s even better to create a new one.
