Miss Matchy Matchy

Sometimes I get tired of certain J.Crew "look" that is trying very hard to have unusual color and pattern matching. I feel like all those 'unexpected' touches became predictable and overused. It has been done so often that I am expecting bed-hair or motorcycle boots with a pretty party dress, and the only thing that seems to go with Chanel-esque jacket anymore is a pair of ripped boyfriend jeans and pointy stilettos.

Suddenly, the rebel in me wants to match my purse with my shoes and pick up the most obvious solid color to wear with patterned blouse. I don't want to borrow anything from the boys or surprise anybody with a sequined baseball cap.

So yes, the Festival Blue double serge pencil skirt is a perfect match for a Electric plaid blouse. And nothing goes better with bow tied blouse than a pencil skirt and a pair of pointy pumps that match your purse.

 

Now do tell, didn't you rather expect a flower skirt in green and yellow tones and a pair of red Converse?

My second outfit is even more matchy matchy, with only two colors involved.

I am wearing a thermal from Brora (i love these), J.Crew Sterling skirt, old shoes from Joan& David, J.Crew Andy purse and tigths matching my top.

I have to say that I felt put together and maybe even 'unexpected'.

That's all folks!!!

Do you do matchy matchy?

Please share, it would be no fun without you!!!
