Step into Color

I've been talking about incorporating color into your wardrobe a lot recently. I think it adds so much character to an outfit, but a lot of women are scared of wearing it. While it definitely takes time to introduce bright patterns or shocking neons into your usually monochromatic wardrobe, a great way is to use accessories to brighten up your typical color palette. Great with black, navy, tans, and white a  little pop of something bright whether its your bag, your shoes or a belt can really help to liven you up. It's all about baby steps.

The other day I went shopping with my friend and we stopped in one of my favorite stores in Atlanta, Jeffrey's. Every time I walk in there, I go straight for this shoe because it really captures my attention. I love that its vibrant, but a pastel. The coral color is definitely anything but practical, but yet so easy to pull off at the same time. Also available in lavender and teal, the only thing that stops me from adding all three of these to my closet is the idea that I would be standing around 6' 5 1/2."

Another great option for a colorful heel, are these two sandals by Aldo. At a fraction of the cost of the Christian Louboutin pumps, these make the same fun and flirty statement. What I think really draws me to all three of these shoes, is that they are bright but not over the top. Perfect with a pair of jeans and white t-shirt or a shift dress, they are complementary without drawing too much attention away from you. Always wear your clothes (and shoes), never let them wear you!
