Navy & Gold

Sweater: F21, Skirt: Club Monaco (old but similar and here), Shoes: Loft, Accessories: Karen Walker sunglasses, Man Ray pin from de Young Museum, F21 ring, Prada bag 

I purchased this skirt from Club Monaco ages ago but have held on to it like glue. The simple pleats, the brocade fabric and the gold color have never faded in style for me. Pairing this skirt with my navy sweater was almost an "easy way out" way to dress. But, the classic color pairing with updated trends help make the look modern and chic. I'm especially digging my Man Ray pin (a tribute to the story of Man Ray and Lee Miller) that I finally took out to wear. You almost don't notice the pin is a pair of lips until you see it up close. It's a simple finishing touch to my outfit.
