Song: I Just Don't Think I'll Ever Get Over You--Colin Hay
Where: Paragon Salon
What I Wore:
- It was deliciously brisk outside. Of course, as I type this, it's now 74. Hmph. But let me relieve that brief windy weather. I started off with a grey sweater, to match the cool weather and the sadness of this song.
- Next, came the omnipresent black skinnies, and it was decided I was only wearing two colors.
- Since it was cold, and I will use just about any excuse to wear a scarf (even getting the mail. TRUE STORY!), I wore this black and grey bird scarf. I don't remember where I got it, but it looks similar to the one above...just grey birds. The only other accessory I wore was my watch; I fail to mention it but it's always there.
- I will also wear boots for any reason, and these grey boots were just right.
- For beauty, I curled my hair with a flat iron, wore the faintest aubergine smokey eye, and a nude lip. It somehow all worked together.
Me, in pieces, before haircut/color and anxiety attacks
Do you ever wear just 2 colors? One color?
Do you have anxiety attacks about seeing yourself on the Internet?
What about a new hair stylist?
I dont think you can go wrong with a lot of grey. Good song too :)
ReplyDeleteThat is one lovely scarf! The print is just darling! I definitely don't like looking for a new hair stylist-- I'm very picky about it and only go to Asian stylists because they're the only ones who understand Asian hair! When I lived in a much smaller city, I couldn't find one and went without haircuts for MONTHS at a time!

I think you looked lovely in just black and gray. I'll often do blue jeans and all black. Glad you had some down time to relax.
ReplyDeleteI'm a huge fan of grey and black. I don't mind wearing only two colors, or even just one color! Love the boots.
ReplyDeleteI often only wear one or two colors and I'm a big fan of the grey and black combo - also, those grey boots are so cute!

I love mixing colors. Even when I'm wearing one tone outfit, I try to accessorize it with other complimentary colors. Grey and black is my absolute favorite to play with. xoxo

ReplyDeleteI love your scarf!
ReplyDeleteYour hair looks fantastic!! And I'm loving that grey and black outfit!

your hair looks great! and yes, I get anxiety over switching hairstylists ~ I was so loyal to mine I was having to take 1/2 days off work to get out to my salon and back, then realized how ridiculous I was being when I have a great salong walking distance from me (I know, ridiculous!)
ReplyDeleteloving the outfit inspiration. I love gray, black and white together. xo
ReplyDeleteYou look gorgeous! Love your hair!
ReplyDeleteYou look great, I love grey!

I am such a sucker for a cute bird print--I adore that scarf!
ReplyDeleteYou always have the cutest outfits! I love that you pared boots with pants...I've been noticing a lot of chicks I work with (at a law firm) paring short skirts with boots (and no leggings, tights, etc) I hate that...HATE IT!!!! Isn't the whole point of boots is that it is cold enough to wear them? Okay I'll stop venting! {I do feel a little better now}

Great outfit! That lipstick is the perfect shade. :)
ReplyDeleteI am fairly brave when it comes to hairstyles. I wear more than 2 colors usually and I think my face looks old in pictures so I always look down. :)
ReplyDeleteLove gray and black together and so glad your hair turned out great! I have total anxiety before a photo goes up on the internet and whenever I see my photo up, I usually have that moment of cringe and then it's like, 'moving on'...

I never wear just one color head-to-toe, but I do wear just two colors fairly often especially in winter - my cold weather wardrobe has lots of black and grey in it, and I often add a pop of color, like a burgundy satchel or a purple scarf.
ReplyDeleteThis outfit is very much something I would wear myself!
Love this monochromatic look! :) Definitely a fan :)

I am guilty of wearing just one color (all black), but sometimes I'll do black and gold. I love simplifying things, so one or two colors seem to be enough for me! Great post, Elle!
ReplyDeleteLove that outfit! I'm the queen of black & gray. There are endless possibilities with a wardrobe full of black and gray. Those pieces go w/ anything and everything.
ReplyDeleteI get nervous with new stylists too. It's awful. Rather go to a dentist...lol
I love grey and black with a touch of shimmer! Love your scarf girl! :D
ReplyDeleteAt first I was sensitive when I started fashion blogging, but it's like one big happy family now. Everyone is merely trying to help each other out. :D

ReplyDeleteI wear my GAP black skinnines at LEAST 1x a week. I am worried they are going to fade from so much wear. Best purchase of the year for me...they are so versatile!

Oh do I have anxiety about seeing a new stylist...I went to the same guy for about 5 yrs and when his ego got too big I had to find another place. I have thick and wavy Asian hair that is triple the density of Caucasians. I do not have anxiety about seeing myself on the internet. And yes I like to wear 2 colours :)
ReplyDeleteThere's something so sophisticated about wearing gray and black. And I love it with a pretty, pink lip!
ReplyDeletei think i've only posted 2 images of me on my blog... i'm not big on taking photos of me... ha!
ReplyDeletelove the outfit!
I also have been wearing a lot of black and gray. I love those boots! Super cute!
ReplyDeleteI love the swallow print scarf!

I almost never go to the same stylist.. probably because I've been moving lots lately.. and sometimes I'm my own stylist :D I like the outfit :)
ReplyDeleteI love that sweater, and the scarf is DARLING!
