Pinned It and Did It: Mustard

I have a strange affinity for mustard.  I know it's a color a lot of people shy away from, but I'm drawn to it for some reason.  So, of course, when I saw this Pin, it was one I wanted to try:

And try it, I did:



Skirt & Sweater: thrifted  Cowl: Nordstrom  Boots: MICHAEL Michael Kors

All in all, I think it looks pretty good.  I went with a gray, cable knit cowl instead of fur, but I think the addition of the gray works.

Really, the only thing I think is missing, is texture.  The Pinsperation picture has a fabulous mix of leather, fur and that high-textured sweater.  I tried to add some texture with my scarf and the leather boots, but I think if I did it again, I'd also wear a sweater with a more interesting weave instead of a smooth weave:


In the end though, I really do like this look and I'm happy to be linking up to Style Journey's Pinned It and Did It link party with it.


Happy Thursday, All!
