Ever since I put together this monochromatic outfit, I have been experimenting with more matchy-matchy looks and I’ve decided I really love the sophisticated vibe of a same-color blazer & trouser. This time, I added a faux fur vest for an extra layer of warmth and to keep the suit-like separates from feeling too stuffy…plus I’m obsessed with the cobalt + black combination.
What I’m wearing:
J. Crew blouse (on sale here), c/o The Impeccable Pig blazer (here), M.S.S.P. vest (via eBay; similar), LOFT trousers (similar), JW Anderson for ALDO pumps (on sale here), ALDO clutch (on sale here), Bracelets: Vintage & J. Crew Factory (on sale here), Target earrings (similar), Ray-Ban wayfarers (similar), Nails: Deborah Lippmann Don’t Tell Mama, Lips: L’Oreal Colour Riche Blushing Berry

I love your outfit, especially how you added the faux fur!
Love black and blue together. And I love how you layered the fur vest over your blazer. Gives such a beautiful texture to your outfit.

I'm in love with the faux fur and the polka dots. This is probably my favorite outfit by far. The shoes, the clutch, the dots, the cobalt. Lovely!

I have been strangely afraid of matchy outfit lately. Maybe I need to give it a try.
I love it, but what occasion is it for, exactly? Haha. Maybe we shouldn't worry about those details…

Amazing that the pants and blazer from two companies pair that perfectly, and love how you added the vest. Something a florida girl would never think about. 🙂
PS: next time you find shoes that amazing, please alert this girl. Your roomie! haha

This is one of my fave color combos too! I also have that purse but unfortunately got pen on it. Any idea on how to remove the ink?

Hi Karen – try spraying some hairspray on a q-tip and see if that will do the trick! 🙂
Thanks! I will try that!
Those shoes are so girlie and I love the fur vest!! I love your style- so cute.

I never would have thought to layer a vest over a blazer! I love vests though and am still on the hunt for a thrifted one. We are on the same page about "penny pinching". Nearly all my wardrobe is thrifted-a hubby in grad school working part-time and two little ones do that to your budget when you are STAHM!
I love this look! It's a classier, & more fun, version of a suit!
