This outfit was brought to you by these fabric covered button earrings I bought at a Christmas craft fair for only $8. I've never paired purple, burgundy and gold before but the earrings convinced me that it was a smart move.
Do you ever style your ensemble around your accessories?
This is such an adorable outfit! LOVE the purple and gold together :)
ReplyDeleteYes or a pair of shoes :) I love these colors together. It's amazing how one thing can inspire a whole outfit! Heather
ReplyDeleteEmily hi! Yes, all the time. My Mom tried to tell me it should be the other way around but that is more cool these days to have the inspiration come from the accessories. I usually do it around my shoes. LOL
ReplyDeleteYes, my grandson is a chubby cheeked kid alright. I love him so much.
This look is absolutely stunning! I love the tights, the bow, and how you layered this outfit - gorgeous!

Oh my gosh, that cold weather is insane! When I lived in Chicago, my winter outfits were terrible--layers and layers of sweaters and wearing gloves inside at the office. Have some vegan hot chocolate and sit by a fire or something!

emily this is such a feminine, darling, barbie approved, career girl outfit! i adore it. :) of course i plan an outfit around accessories. i do my purse for the week, and i match my nails to the purse, then base my outfits around that.
ReplyDeleteHoly crap! It's cold here but you really have us beat. Love the outfit. I often start constructing mine around accessories. Your shoes are so cute.
ReplyDeleteit's hard to tell.. maybe I have done it but don't simply remember anymore.. maybe I haven't done it. anyway, those earrings are especially lovely and I really like it how you have taken those and built everything else around them. it's a beautiful outfit, Emily.

Yes, I've definitely styled outfits around earrings or necklaces before. I love the colors you are rocking Emily! This is so pretty, purple and white are so lovely together! And yes, it is cold down here in MN too, we are sitting around -10 F. Not so much fun! Your picture makes me long for warmer weather!
ReplyDeleteEmily, you are a vision in purple! I love all the beautiful shades of lilac and violet. That is definitely your color! :) I totes am guilty of styling my outfit around one item. The earrings you have on are so pretty!
