Style Diary: Orange Sweater and Lafayette Skirt

As a follow-up to my last post on orange event inspirational shots, I have here an orange sweater from JCrew that I last wore for a Lafayette fashion presentation.  Think it’s hard to style bright orange?  Try neutralizing it with brown, navy or white.  Below, you’ll see that I toned it down with brown.

I love this necklace.  It was a souvenir find from my recent trip to Thailand where I got to meet the designer and buy 3 other pieces at such a steal!  Nothing beats shopping against the Thai Baht!

Style Diary: BCBG Metallic heels

I made a pitstop at our shoe department during the huge July consolidation sale and ended up not being able to resist a couple pairs from the sale rack.  One pair was this metallic BCBG stilettos that looked both sexy and edgy at the same time.  I couldn’t believe they were only going to be around $50 with my employee discount.  And I loved how they looked so designer at a fraction of the cost.

I immediately put them to good use the next day and wore them to work with my Calvin Klein charcoal sheath – something that I find so comfy and glam at the same time.  It’s stretchy and never wrinkles which also makes it the perfect travel dress.  Because of all the glitz, I toned it down for work with a chocolate, half-sleeve cardigan that I bought at (gasp) Target!  With all the sparkle and shine, I figured I didn’t need much in terms of accessories.  So I just added my sunglasses and a brown tote and I was off!  What do you think?
