Hi all!! It feels so good to finally be back in my beloved PNW. I had a blast in my trip to Detroit. Even though I had mentioned I was going to share my pics from the trip those are going to be delayed for the meantime due to a tiny incident with my camera. Not to worry, the photos are definitely coming later, so expect the Detroit post really soon. Another reason why I'm so happy to be back at the evergreen city is that I was able to reconnect with my fellow blogger friend Kimberly. You're totes amazing for taking the pics with your camera for this shoot by the way, you really made my day. You guys should for sure stop by her blog and share some love while you're at it.
Alright, so winter is settling in already. Can you believe a couple posts back I was still wearing short sleeves and shorts? These past few mornings I have felt the necessity of taking out the warm outwear from my closet and drawers. I love doing this because layering winter clothes is like painting on a blank canvas. The possibilities are endless; there is (almost) no way of getting it wrong this time of the year. I mean you have the excuse that you don't want to freeze in the cold, right? Furthermore, it's a time when you want to stand out in color, since the sun mischievously hides behind the clouds and you don't want to look all gray and dull.
Take a look at this combination of winter prints. Each piece by itself is already pretty colorful, but it's not until you put them together that magic happens. The key here is to know how to overlay the patterns. The vest has a square pattern, while the sweater has a horizontal one. This works well because the horizontal lines blend in, creating a sense of continuation. The vertical lines of the vest though still stand out, and it gives it the pop that just takes it to the next level. Then I just paired the mix with light blue chinos and my favorite shades.
I loved how this outfit turned out in the wilderness that we have in our backyard. What's your take on this? Like the idea? Now you can mix your favorite prints on this winter season and just knock it out of the park everyday. Feel free to share your comments and thanks for stopping by today. Keep posted for the Detroit trip pictures, since they are coming really soon, and as always keep stylish. Till next time!
