polka-dots and peplum

Hi lovelies, I'm Jenee your guest blogger from {camo meets couture}.
Kristen has kindly let me take over her blog today to share with you some thoughts on the art of getting dressed (if there were such a thing).

When it comes to creating outfits, I love building around a key piece. Whether it's a classic LBD, plain white tee or in this case a fabulous pair of polka-dot pants. Once you know which particular item you'd like to wear, the rest is a simple case of mix and match with a little accessorizing thrown in. 

My favorite outfits all tend to have some form of contrast. For instance, pairing a great little dress under an oversize blazer or skinny leather pants with a chunky knit sweater. Casual pieces look great paired with corporate wear, think baseball tees with pencil skirts. 

These polka-dot pants are the perfect blend of feminine print with masculine form. In keeping with the 'borrowed from the boys' approach, I paired the pants with a classic button down, cardigan and large structured tote (great alternative to the briefcase). While the oxford shirt is a nod to classic menswear, the peplum cardigan keeps things looking fun and flirty. Add to that a few undone buttons, messy hair, bright lipstick and killer heels for an ultra feminine take on menswear inspired style. 

And in true C'est si bon style, a gold bow to complete the look. 

Thanks for having me Kristen, and thanks for reading!
