Outfit of the Day: Emerald

By Dawn Sailors In Fashion

Dress: American Eagle
Cardigan: NY&Co.
Leggings: Forever 21
Boots: Steve Madden via Von Maur
Earrings: Stella & Dot
Belt: ??? (I’m fairly certain it came attached to something else.)

Consider this me dipping my toe into the Emerald craze (you know, since that is Pantone’s color of the year). I actually bought these earrings months ago, so I’m technically ahead of the trend. They’re a set I got from hosting my Stella & Dot party last summer. And I LOVE them. I would wear them every day, but that might be weird. They’re pretty noticeable. In a good way. I’ve gotten at least one compliment every time I’ve ever had them on. My boss told me they remind him of a mood ring. I’m not sure, but I think it was meant as a compliment, so I counted it. I think they’re stunning.

I like to wear them with unexpected colors, like this gold cardigan. Mostly because I feel weird whenever I match my jewelery too closely to my clothes (although sometimes I do try anyway). I don’t know why, but it always feels more effortless and less though out the less matchy it is. I could be wrong. Maybe it looks like I wasn’t thinking or making any effort. And maybe I should start checking for feline photo bombers.

Regardless, I like this outfit and I’ll probably wear it again. So yay!

Tomorrow is my day off so happy early weekend, friends!
