I started the look off with a gorgeous reverse nautical striped top. I loved this top for it's unexpected take on the nautical look by placing the emphasis on the dark stripes rather than the light ones, and it features a 3/4 sleeve. Since it's such a bold pattern, I wore a long necklace to focus the eye, in the feathery teal blue hue that coordinates with the bag.
Here's where the fun comes in. Instead of going with a classic pairing like white pants or jeans, I added a dramatic pop of color with this neon pink banded skirt. The color is just stunning in person, and the dark striped top helps keep it grounded. I added a neon yellow belt to give a bit more pop. Keep it skinny to avoid overwhelming the eye with too much color.
I wanted to further the look of the color blocking by adding a third color to the mix, so I incorporated a bright teal fold-over handbag. This is a solid color with accents nicely off the skirt and patterned top, and has a beautiful gold chain strap with acts like an added jewelry accessory when draped over the shoulder or cross-body. I also added a statement ring and bracelet. Bold color, bold accessories.
And finally, the look was made complete by pairing some color blocked wedges. I just love these! And they are unbelievably comfortable! The pink and yellow helps balance the skirt and belt, while the black top keeps the look grounded and chic.
