Gray and Pastels

Last week I blogged about a lilac and gray outfit I was wearing.  It got me thinking about how gray looks great with all pastel colors. So, I used the same  gray and pastels formula for today's outfit of gray and sky blue.

This is a sky blue leather skirt from White House Black Market that I got last season.
The gray zipper eyelet jacket is Armani Collezioni that I got at Neiman's Last Call, also last year.

 

I paired it with gray and navy pearls, and a wrist-full of silver bangles.  I learned how to stack bangles from growing up in the Middle East...looking at these pictures I'm not sure if that projects the successful business woman image I'm going for, but I am in very cosmopolitan Houston, so maybe it works!

 

 

Here are the shoes I'm wearing.  The are still available at DSW, and are on sale. The gray tied in with my jacket and it's not obvious in this picture, but there are shades of blue throughout the gray, so these are just the perfect shoe for this outfit!

Outfit of the Day

Here's what I wore today: Michael Kors jersey dress with my WHBM jacket over it.  I always like to wear a jacket at work, I just feel more professional.  This dress is cute without the jacket though, it has cap sleeves and you can better appreciate the draping details.  If I were the cool type of person that had fun things to do after work I could just take the jacket off and be on my way to happy hour.  But, my life today involves picking up my daughter from school today and taking her to piano lessons!

Here's a close up of the Guess shoes.  I got them at DSW last summer.  I just love them. I always get lots of complements, and the are comfortable. I originally bought them to wear with a yellowy-green top I bought, but after holding them up to things in my closet I've discovered they go with all sorts of things I own.

Here are some similar shoes:
