I intentionally mixed the tones and textures to create the illusion of a much wider color palette, while still taking advantage of what a monochromatic look can do for those of us who are somewhat vertically challenged….simply put, going with one color makes you seem taller!

This season I’m loving the over the knee boot….especially this blue suede number, which I would also pair with a short flippy skirt.
What I wore:
Hi-Low Sweater by Anthropologie
Over the knee Boots by Stuart Weitzman
Bangle and Ring by Alexis Bittar
