Wrap Dress Right
With the warmer weather I have gotten out all my dresses. The last time this purple faux-wrap dress was on the blog, it was fall and I worked it with boots. Looking back, I dislike that outfit. Time to do it right!
I paired it with a bright yellow thrifted blazer, my coral H&M cross-body bag and my crocheted open-toe flats. I've been taking ideas from Mix and Match Fashion and combining colors that I normally wouldn't. I usually follow the one bright, everything else neutral rule. However, I love the yellow/purple/coral!
My only problem with this much-loved dress (I've had it since 2006) is that it is low cut and I had to keep adjusting my cleavage. I'm going to sew it shut at the spot I want.
What do you think? Too many colors or just right?
ON ME:
DRESS: NY & CO.
BLAZER: TALBOTS/THRIFTED/GOODWILL
BAG: H&M
FLATS: AMERICAN EAGLE
NECKLACE: TIFFANY &CO

You did a great job combining colors! And Tara really does do an amazing job at it, and is inspiring! Love the yellow blazer and your dress!
I thought so too. I have bought like, 3 yellow items the past month and I usually don't even like that color, but I LOVE it paired with other bright colors!
Those two colors are so pretty together, I love how cheery the yellow is!
I literally did the same thing. I pulled out the old color wheel and was like what will go with my purple dress? Bingo, yellow blazer.
Thanks Tara! And truthfully, I don't even care much for yellow! But I love it as my "pop" color!
Love the color combo! Super cute!!
