Autumn Palette

Hello, welcome and thanks for stopping by my blog!

In the fall, and in all seasons really, 

I  like to wear some outfits with a seasonal vibe

This means now is the time for a little bit of autumn color!

I did a seasonal color analysis for skin tone and hair years ago,  

and according to the experts, I am a winter

I think the winter palette makes pretty good sense for me,

and I agree that I look best when wearing colors with cool undertones,

whether they be bright, mid-tone or pastel

The brights are my favorites to wear, though

But, I like variety and to go with the seasonal flow

So in October and November especially, 

I mix in some earthly tones and neutrals

Have you had your seasonal color palette determined?

I found it an interesting and helpful guide,

but definitely don't stick strictly to it 

There are so very many factors that go into what we wear and why!

My first outfit this week is a basic ivory cashmere V neck pullover sweater

paired with an asymmetrical hem skirt in an abstract print with a flouncy ruffled hem

The print has a mix of muted fall tones, including shades of rust and orange

Carrying my two tone vegan leather and fabric bag

I think this bag would work for all seasons

but the brown tones seem especially right for fall

To compliment the golden hues of autumn 

I am wearing my brass tone reticulated butterfly necklace,

 a gold tone chunky wrap bracelet and hoop earrings

Tawny brown curved top ankle boots with brass studs 

and wooden stack heels to finish the outfit

My second outfit this week

 features a classic light tan blazer style jacket that has a fall-like feeling

This shade goes well with many other colors in my wardrobe

Worn here over a column of black-a black camisole and black trousers 

  

Carrying m dark red square quilted bag

and wearing a favorite mixed animal print scarf

Animal prints and autumn 🍁 were made for each other!

For jewelry, I chose a wide, gold-tone buckle detail cuff bracelet,

link design hoop earrings, and a unique vintage leather 3-D rose brooch-

I am always open to adding a little color to a neutral outfit!

Denim:  The quintessential autumn textile,

paired here with a rich burgundy background print blouse

 with orange, blue and white in the print

This was three years ago, in October 2020 

Hope everyone enjoys their week!
