Cute Outfit of the Day: Complimentary Color Continuity

dress: thrifted $5
scarf: thrift $2
Abercrombie jacket: thrifted $4
vintage shoes: $4
vintage bag: $2
ring: antique store $18
Total Cost: $35

I struggled with styling this dress at first. I thought it was too boring on it's own or even with this tan jacket. So I decided to add a complimentary color with the scarf and shoes and that was just the thing it needed! When you introduce a new color into an outfit like this, it looks best to not just add the color once but twice to create continuity. 

Did you notice the leather accents on this jacket? That's why I had to have it! And also because it fit my petite frame really well- which is hard to find when you're little! I don't normally like Abercrombie but I do have a couple of their jackets and they fit so perfectly!

This is my go-to combo for fall right now. Summer dress+ jacket+scarf = perfect Fall look! Then later you can add the tights and boots! Try it!

  3. How did you tie your scarf? The heels are pretty but that bag is gorgeous. I love that it looks a little like a briefcase.

  5. That jacket is a great fit and I love the leather details (glad you pointed it out). I feel like it provides structure to your outfit but is still casual.
