Yay! It's Monday. I'm kidding. I had a lovely weekend filled with good Friends and great food and whatnot. Needless to say, I'm not too happy to be back at the office. The good thing is that it's 'make it work Monday.' That's where I take something that I would not normally wear and Work it out.
This Monday's installment features this crazy ass belt.
It's an amazing belt. I got it at a vintage clothing swap years ago. I have always felt like it was a bit 'silly' to get away with. This is kind of ridiculous coming from the girl who just a few days ago was wearing a t-shirt featuring an octopus wearing glasses and a moustache! Still, The belt felt a bit costume to me. Maybe it's the rhinestones. Anyway, I never wear it but today is the day! This is what I did:
I like it. I think the brown works nicely with the blue and gold. I encourage you all to 'Make it work' too! It's fun!
Stay Stylish,

The hairband is a nice touch to the belt and the chain gives good balance to the earrings. Nice color balance.
ReplyDeleteI'm a big fan of combining blue and brown or pink and brown. You look fabulous!

Brown and blue are one of my favorite color combo's! It looks great. Can I tell you that I see the rhinestones but really DON'T see the rhinestones?

love the combo
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone! yay Monday!
ReplyDeletewhat a great idea! I definitely have things in my closet and dresser that need more creativity than I usually feel I have... but dedicating a day to these items is really only fair to them! you definitely made the belt work with that great shade of blue. I could also see it working well over a shirt dress, which I know you love :)
ReplyDeleteI love the belt & the necklace! So pretty =)
