{outfit} Start from the Bottom

A lot of my outfits start with shoes. I pick out a pair of shoes that I think need some more love and plan an outfit around it. With these shoes I decided to pair them with burnt orange for an interesting color combo! Topped off with an oversized cardigan, as is my habit and you have a super comfortable look! The dress and cardigan combo may have worked better with heels since I'm on the shorter side, but I still like the way this came out.

Dress: Marc by Marc Jacobs c/o Marshalls, Cardigan: Lauren by Ralph Lauren (Lord & Taylor), Flats c/o Joie, Necklace: Grandma's

    I like the colours and the subtle print.
    In my case, shoes are usually the last to jump in when putting together an outfit.

    How interesting! I've never really thought about it, but most of my outfits start from the top and work their way down - shoes and accessories are what I think of last almost all of time. But thinking of shoes first obviously works for you because the results of this outfit are so fun - you look comfortable and casual but totally put together at the same time.

    You have so many great printed shoes! I tend to struggle with printed footwear, except for leopard. leopard goes with everything :)

    Interesting approach - shoes are always the last on my list with an outfit, so I can sometimes be found wearing two different ones, hobbling off to find a full length mirror to decide which style looks best, or standing, flamingo-like on one foot to assess which of two choices suits!

    How cute! I've never been able to pick an entire outfit starting with the shoes. I always start with the top and go from there.
