Sea Green and Poor Hair




Hey highlights! Let's get you done today. Okay? Ok.

top: forever 21
necklace: francesca's
tights: express
shoes: local boutique

I lucked out when shopping around last weekend and came across this high-low dress/top (it helps being short sometimes) in Forever 21. It's perfect for traveling (lightweight and great with tights). I love the sea green color because, although the pictures don't do them justice, it brings out my eyes and it's just an all year round color.

I'd love to pair it with my brown tights, but am lacking a pair of brown ankle booties--that have now made my next shopping list.

Random question: In your opinion, is cognac brown and black still a no-no? (I say they look fine together, but hey, majority rules.)

Linking up with Style Sessions, What I Wore Wednesday, Random Wednesday, and Half Way There.

  3. I love that shade of green. It looks very nice on you and your hair looks great. I need to go shopping at a Forever 21 I have heard good things about it. BTW I think it depends on what you are wearing to pull off black and brown.

  4. I still cannot put brown and black together, but I think I have my mother to thank for brainwashing me into thinking that way. That shirt color looks gorgeous on you! :)

  8. I would say yes to brown and black. I normally only do it with riding boots or a purse. I wouldn't wear a brown top and black pants, but I think it's actually OKAY now :) Love that green top, looks super comfy.

  9. I love the green top! In my opinion, cognac and black are no longer a no-no. As a matter of fact, I wore a black shirt dress and black leggings with cognac boots and cognac belt on Monday. I really like putting brown and black together as well as navy and black. :)
