In knots

I think I often go for the same color schemes on consecutive days. Like wearing black and white three days in a row. Sequentially this outfit came the day before the one I posted yesterday, and after this one... I hate to go all out of order because I feel like there is a certain loss of authenticity when I don't blog what I was actually wearing today - but today was filled with darkness and rain, so what is a girl to do?

Trying out some different photo processing - yay or nay? {to compare}

    i truly love monochromatic looks. you look amazing, as usual. by processing, do you mean your photos? they look really warm and pretty - perfect for fall!

    I stick to the same color scheme a few days in a row a lot. Why not stick with what works?

    I really like the lace skirt! And the new photo processing looks nice.

    Oh I love this outfit! I particularly adore your shirt and belt! Personally, I struggle to find button up tops that don't gape across the bust so well done! Hehe!

    Black and white is always such a chic and classic combo - and that belt is an amazing piece! I really need to get better about downloaded my photos and posting them daily - I hit it 2 or so days out of the week but between my part-time job, auditing a class and teaching, and doing my own research on new projects and the dissertation I usually wind up having 4 or days a week where I'm working from 8 am to 11 pm and photo stuff just falls by the wayside. Hopefully things will stabilize next year after I graduate though!

    I like the photo editing, definitely more autumnal in tone than the goldeny editing you had for much of the summer. Both are pretty!

    And, yup, I definitely get in color scheme ruts... I often do!

  23. welldressedmakerSeptember 30, 2011 at 12:33 PM

    I'm the same... Whenever I get a color scheme that I like, I just keep on going. Then, I worry that it looks too monotonous on the blog. But I can't help it! black and white just look so good together!

    Love the silver belt. I'm sooo into Celtic designs!

    It looks sunsetty, a little vintage/sepia. Would also look awesome when the leaves turn and you get some nice orange and yellow. And that belt, for real. I have one with a knot detail like that, but the composition of yours way cooler.

    That belt is amazing. I didn't realize I wore series of colors until someone mentioned that I wore plum three days in a row, so I suppose I may have a problem with that also.
