Fashion File: One statement at a time

Statement pieces are trendy right now.  A statement piece is anything you wear that really stands out.  Like these shoes...

Statement pieces can be so much fun.  It is really important not to go overboard.  You really should only make one statement at a time.  So if you are wearing statement shoes like the ones above, you want to downplay everything else.  Here are some examples (Today I swiped all my pictures from Pinterst.  I got sucked into the Pinterest vortex and will not admit how long I spent searching for these pictures)...

Statement shoes are everywhere right now from floral prints to really bright colors and animal prints.  Even TOMS has come out with some awesome patterned shoes.  The thing that is great about the bright TOMS is you can wear them with simple jeans and a black t-shirt but still feel fun.

        

Bright colored pieces (as I have mentioned before about jeans) are super fun.  Everything else should be neutral.

     

 

 

 

 

It seems like everyone owns at least one statement necklace.  If you are wearing a big necklace you should not have on anything that competes with it.  Especially big earrings.

Here's a great way to wear a scarf and a belt...

    

Ok and for fun, a few pictures of an outfit making one too many statements...

Keirstin and Joslyn,

Would you mind sharing with us where you got your lovely orange pants that you wore to the revival. I believe it was the 18th.

You ALWAYS look amazing Holly :) I love your style.

You wore some absolutly adorable flats one night of the revival (they were tan with bright orange toes). If you don't mind me asking, where did you get them? I know JCrew had some like that but with pink toes this summer.

They were sooo adorable, even from the back row at blakney :)
