Fun with Accent Colors

05/23/2011

Happy Monday!  How was your weekend?  Thank you for all the birthday wishes on Friday's post.  I had a great weekend, but it was of course way too short.  I'm running a little late for work this morning, so this post will be brief.  It's finally warm enough here to wear dresses and skirts pretty regularly, which is nice, but can also get kind of boring after a while.  Today, to punch things up, I added bright blue and yellow accents to a black and white dress.

Dress: Target (remixed)
Flower pin & earrings: New York & Company
Shoes: Aerosoles (remixed)
Watch: Fossil
Bag: Coach, gifted

  3. Great accents!  I am always at a loss about spicing up black and white.  I'm glad your weather has changed because I am still chilly today.

    Love the pairing of bright blue and yellow, always a good way to mix up your black and white.

  10. Seriously, the yellow purse is the coolest gift I've ever received! So turning 30 isn't so bad after all :)

  13. Ah yes, Carrie did rock flower pins! That's one of the few styles she and I agree on.

  14. I'll be joining you in being chilly the rest of the week, unfortunately. But I think just about any bold color works with black and white.

  15. Oh, happy belated birthday, Anne.  I'm glad you had a good birthday weekend.  And I know what you mean about dresses.  I like that they are easy (one step dressing) but I also think that they can be kind of boring.  You've upped the interest on yours very well though - love the blue and yellow it.
