Burgundy goes Basic


  


flats (Luxury Rebel, Piperlime), jeans (Express BOGO 50% off how cute are THESE), sweater (Old Navy only $29), shirt (J.Crew), watch (Cartier), bag (Burberry), shades (Gucci), bracelets (J.Crew & Voce)
I may be committing  a Major No-No in this post....Metal Mixing!  I remember reading an article interviewing Rachel Zoe (whom I adore) where she firmly stated, "do not EVER mix your metals."  Alas, here I post, all gold hardware on the bag, watch, ring, bracelets and.....Silver Flats!!!  But you know what, there's another wise gal in this fashion world I've always admired & looked to for fashion advice--one of my best gal pals, Brooke, who works for a pretty amazing fashion designer in NYC and She metal mixes and  always look ridiculously fabulous...therefore, I say MIX!  Here's the other thing, I am quite detail oriented when it comes to my rigs, but there's a point where I have to cut myself off otherwise I'd drive myself completely insane trying to align all the metallic stars.  So for those of you who see this as a major metallic clash, my deepest apologies--I just can't help myself!  Hells Bells, we can mix stripes & polka dots, but we can't mix metals--just doesn't add up in my book!  Put this to rest for me, gang...Metal Mixing, is it a Do or a Don't?
Make it a good one!
