Color(s) of the Month: The Black and Gold Standard

0 Comments 01 October 2012

 For this month’s color we chose to go with a play on traditional Halloween colors to show you some great looks, not to mention deals, that can work for many areas of your life. These pieces also serve as a way to incorporate one of our favorite fall trends: pairings of black and gold. 

A traditional line of thought might be that black and gold should be reserved for more formal social events or holiday parties.  Here at Style Tutor we beg to differ.  Take, for instance,  the fun BCBG embellished top from local online retailer Klury.com:  how amazing would it look with a great pair of cuffed skinny jeans and the glitter heels?  The jeans would help to balance out the dressier tones of the top and shoes and would make for a great date night or girl’s night out look.

 Before you think I have gone daft, let me make a little clairification about that lovely Anthropologie coat.  No, I cannot afford a $500 coat.  If I spent that kind of money on a coat I would have to literally wear it day and night, no matter the weather.   By the way, I don’t suggest you drop $500 on a coat either, especially if you live in AZ.  But, oh my, it sure is pretty to look at!
