Catch Up with Mustard

Bag (Ellepi, Marshalls); Scarf (Amazon.com); Jacket (Jones New York, Macy's); Pants (Larry Levine, Dress Barn); Watch (Anne Klein, Macy's); Shoes (Nine West, Zappos)

So, I am a big fan of mustard (both the color and the condiment).  When I wore this outfit to the office recently, it got lots of compliments (especially the scarf, which was only $12 from Amazon last year).  I have a great navy and mustard envelope clutch I considered pairing with it, but I liked the idea of adding a different pop of Fall color through the deep red, whipstitch leather bag and the red pumps with their navy and mustard stripes.  Somehow, though, when I downloaded these pics, my first thought was, "wow, I wish I hadn't worn navy trouser socks with open toe shoes."  My second thought was, "hmmm, if I wasn't anchoring this look with the navy blazer, I might pass for Ronald McDonald's cousin."  So, while I love the combination of mustard and navy (here's a different look), I'm pondering whether the ketchup needs to be reserved for my sandwich?!

Fashion is what you buy; Style is what you do with it!
