Black, Blue and Red.
I have been wearing a lot of Black+Blue lately as well as a lot of Black+Red (you have seen some of it but there will be further proof of this, in early future outfits). Well, for this Outfit I combined Black, Blue and Red altogether. And I must say I loved the results of this Winter edition trio of colors.
I tend to dress up more during December for the big Holiday month, especially since this year I am once again working and last time I worked in December I was 8 to 9 months pregnant so comfort was key. And you can get away with more casual outfits, at the work-place, while pregnant. So, for this work day I wore a Dress which has a Tiered, Silky Skirt in a Graphic Blue/White/Black Print and it is simply Black with an Open Neckline on top. I paired it with my Classic Black WHBM Blazer, some See-through Black Tights, my Royal Blue Oxford Booties and a Blue Beaded Necklace+Matching Earrings. I added my pops of Red via the Red+Blue Scarf, my Red Bag and some Red Lipstick. I ended up taking lots of photos, because during some parts of the day, I kept the Scarf on and it was very much part of the Outfit, when it was warmer I took it off. And no coat was necessary on this day. As a matter of fact after a lunch appointment, I took my Blazer off while walking outside for a little bit. I have gotten a lot of questions about my MK Bag. I purchased it about 8 months ago, but you can still find some online and there is also another, newer version of this Tote which I love. I linked up some options, below. Also, I found some gorgeous similar sheaths and dresses that I linked up. Have you worn Black, Red and Blue lately?
