Powdery Fashion Palette

All fall, it seems, I took a fundamental approach to color — but as the temperatures dip, I’ve actually started to gravitate more toward a powdery fashion palette…

I love wearing white jeans in the winter. It’s refreshing, isn’t it?

It makes almost any outfit appear light and put-together in a way that normal denim doesn’t… But only if styled the right way: Texture, texture, texture!

Grey sweaters are like the LBD of winter weather, am I right? This season especially.

The muted hue seems to suit every skin tone and go with everything — making it must-buy for the grey days ahead on my end especially.

Ah, Monday. Back on the grind this week, over here. (Though wishing I was still here!)

I’m working on a few recaps from my trip to Caneel Bay (see photos on Instagram for now) — as well as some other content, like gift guides and my annual birthday lessons post — so those will be up later this week and next.

  4. I’ve been a little on the fence about buying myself a pair of white jeans … but I think you might have pushed me over into the ‘yes’ party. While you’re sticking to neutrals, this look is still so cheery and fresh - love it!
