Navy Blue + Red

You might have noticed that I use a lot of blues, pinks, and whites in outfit posts or just in general. As a redhead, I am totally skeptical of rocking red, orange, and yellow. But when I spotted this Alice + Olivia belt in the new arrivals at Shopbop, I started to think there just might be a way for me to branch out (in small doses, of course!)...



Fun, don't you think? The belt might just be one of my investment pieces for spring/summer — it would work with so many of my navy looks! You could also work in this wallet if you're really into red (or tassels!). Are there colors you're reluctant to wear?

Love this outfit! I'm reluctant to wear yellow or orange b/c it makes me look sickly. But I have been slowly working on a clutch or a piece of jewelry in those colors.

lovely post! what a great find on the topshop dress, such a steal as it'll definitely be a summer staple.
For me, I don't wear orange, it completely scares me!

love that bag! i think i was really drawn to your site because of all the navys, pinks, and whites haha. of course not the only reason though. i'm slow to step out of my comfort zone. i reorganized my hanging clothes by color and what do ya know the bulk of it is navy blue, pink, and stripes? its caused me to step out of my comfort zone a bit...but maybe not a lot.

Classic look, reluctant to wear red because it washes me out but you've added it without having to wear it head to toe!

A redhead can still definitely wear red! Love this look you put together!

You should try red, really! I think it'd look beautiful on you. If your skeptical, you should at least try some accessories!

What a cute outfit! I love the pops of red, and I think redheads can definitely wear that color. I'm sure it helps to be down around your waist and not right up next to your hair.

I don't really wear pink, but it's a personal preference rather than a issue of it not looking right. Also, I LOVE those shoes.
