Blue and Gold (With Some Reptile Mixed In).

I love mixing colors, patterns, and textures. Today's selections were a classic striped navy + white in two gauges. This balloon-sleeved top could only be contained for a little while, especially once it warmed up! Bright yellow slacks with a feminine tie punctuate this look, especially with the green/brown vintage-looking Seychelles pumps in mock crocodile. The necklace makes a subtle, yet texturized flair to the ensemble propelling the dimension in today's look.  All of these elements together make the statement that bold is BACK. I mean, where'd it go, anyway? Nowhere. It's here to stay!
