STYLE GURU STYLE: The Lovely Earth Tones

With a new year comes a new me, right? Wrong! Winter is in full effect here in Philadelphia and one would assume my clothing choices would change to accommodate the weather. But being โ€œthe Style Skepticโ€ that I am I decided to go very casual when throwing on this outfit featuring my favorite earth tones. Neutral colors, such as nude and blush pink, were a huge trend in 2016, so I decided to bring that trend into 2017 with this look.

I am a firm believer in wearing what you want when you want, and how you want. Fashion is more about being confident in what youโ€™re wearing and not wondering if everybody else is wearing it. I am known to break a couple of fashion rules as you can see in the photos featured above.

When picking out these pieces to wear I wanted to put together an outfit that spoke to my personal taste while also being comfortable enough for a day of errands. I decided to go with a monotone themed outfit by pairing a basic nude T-shirt with a pair of tan chinos that I cuffed to add a slimmer effect to balance out the boxy structure of the T-shirt. I paired this look with a two-toned olive and khaki jacket to add a bit of color to the outfit without straying away from the earthy vibe. I also added a watch with a black leather strap from Reclaimed Vintage to this look to add some depth. This watch is one of my more versatile pieces which can be worn with a casual or formal outfit to take it to the next level. I completed this look with a pair of nude Puma Suede Classics.
