chevron stripes


Wearing | jacket c/o Nectar Clothingtunic c/o 2020AVE • Aldo clutch • BCBG "Kimba" boots from Pixie Market

I'm not sure if it's because I'm itching for a blank slate with my wardrobe or I'm going through a phase, but I've been gravitating towards colorless pieces more than ever since the year has started. I've worn such a hodgepodge of colors, prints, and textures the past couple of months that I guess going back to black (and white) has been acting more like a palate cleanser. But as much as I would love to take a new nod to mod and go all the way, I'm certainly not turning colorblind this spring. In fact, the best way to delve into color is through a single, traffic-stopping dose such as this mustard moto jacket!

P.S. Don't forget to enter my giveaway if you haven't already!

  5. Love this outfit. The black and white dress is perfect - they're my go-to colours too. And the colour from the jackets goes so great.

  7. I feel like my style is heading in something similar to yours. I love the simplicity and chicness that a basic black and white outfit can lend a look. And you rock it with the chevron print and cool wedges! But yes, always needs a nice dose of color - and that moto jacket certainly delivers :D

  11. alright, you have convinced me to get heavy bangs. Also... did your hairstyle change from below entry, or is it just side-swept... cause i'd like to be able to do that (wear it in the front sometimes, but side-swept sometimes).

    Looking fabulous as always foxy lady!

  12. I spent a good few years slowly getting rid of all the black in my wardrobe, to make way for some colourful bright pieces. And this year, I'm loving neutral, mute, colours, and I'm buying everything in black. haha, such is life.

  21. The jacket has such a beautiful colour! ♥ And I didn't expected the back of the dress to be like this xD It gave me a completely different impression of the dress after I saw the last photo. Really nice ;)

    Hope you started your week with a great Monday,
