Black and White x2

 
Sweater and necklace: Macy's. Tee: Target. Pants: local boutique. Shoes: Clarks. 

Sweater: Karl Lagerfeld for Macy's. Leggings: Target. Boots: Boutique 9 via TJ Maxx.

I've got outfits piling up in my iPhoto, so it's a double whammy today. I love bold prints. I'm drawn to them when I shop, but I have found that many times I don't wear them much if they are crazy colors and over the top, notice me, prints. But, when I buy a bold black and white print, I tend to wear it more often. Why is that? I have no idea. But I love both of these sweaters! They are perfect for cold winter days when I need to feel cozy and pulled together.

Do you go for bold?

  2. Maybe because black and white is just so easy to work with? I love the houndstooth in the first picture, it's one of my favorite patterns!

  4. I love both graphic printed pieces. I love black and white prints, but I tend to feel limited by them because white is a really hard color for me to personally style. I've made it a personal style goal to incorporate white into my wardrobe, but I still feel challenged by prints with lots of white.

    I love both your outfits, especially the Lagerfeld tunic. That's a great way to do something bold in a simple one piece garment.

  6. I love that each outfit featured such a bold, stand-out print! The over-sized houndstooth is my personal favorite. A patterned jacket or cardigan is the perfect way to add something to a casual outfit. Very lovely, Keely!

  11. I did a double whammy too- B&W is so chic! I love both outfits but am completely drawn to the second-so funky and I had no idea that Karl Lagerfeld has a Macy's collection! We need a Macy's in Canada-stat!
