“My only brother’s wedding is coming up in mid-August and I have been on the hunt for something to wear. I fell in love with this tapestry inspired skirt but haven’t the slightest idea what to pair it with. Do you have any suggestions? I am a 5′ 4″ lower figure and am completely at the will of your fashion expertise.”
And I thought to my self, “Self, people need to know what goes with what they already have and love?” and then self said, “I’ve told you to do this at least a dozen times. But go ahead listen to Miranda, why pay attention to me?” Then self and I made up and we awarded Miranda our first winner of the first ever Cardigan Empire, What Goes With This contest:
Here is her prize:
Gigham & Metallic
Gingham keeps the look from straying to fussy while metallics keep it from falling into casual. Its a balanced juxtaposition.
Color Blocked
Bold colors equal fresh interpretation. And each of these pieces could be easily remixed into an everyday wardrobe.
Tribal Glamour
When mixing and matching patterns, choose one dominant pattern and accent with simpler patterns. In this ensemble we let the floral shine while the stripes and small animal print support.
And then we gave her alternatives…
