But there are days for remission, moments to revert back to simple tone on tone sophistication. There is a time for neutrals.Shade Clothing can help you begin to break your dye based dependence. Start with garments like the Drape Front Cardigan in Oatmeal, purveyed by these quality neutral merchandisers.

ReplyDeleteThe v-neck cardigan in black is the perfect, classic neutral.
ReplyDeleteLove that cowl neck top.
ReplyDeleteI love the drape front cardigan in berry and the ribbed skirt in hazelnut. Thanks for a chance to win!
ReplyDeleteI am a facebook fan of shade (as well as a real life fan!)
ReplyDeleteI generally love neutrals, but have been loving color too. I think I'd go with the drape front cardigan--I'm ALWAYS cold!
ReplyDeleteI'm a FB fan of Shade. :)
ReplyDeleteI like the long sleeve stripe shirt and the interlock dress. :)
ReplyDeleteI am now a fan of Shade! Michell Adams (michelldadams@hotmail.com)
ReplyDeleteThe Interlock Dress in Black has to be one of my favorites. I also love the ribbed skirt in black.

ReplyDeletei want the straight skirt in pewter.
ReplyDeleteNormally, I love everything you put together... I am a huge fan. But, I don't feel that this is your best work. I am sorry.
ReplyDeleteYou tend to really understand the intricacies of the female form, but this just isn't as flattering as it could be.
It's too Michelle Obama and not in a good way. Each of the pieces is phenomenal, but there is just too much going on on-top. The ruffle, the belt and the drape of the cardigan all seem to be competing. If you remove any one of the three, it's a good combination (obviously, I don't mean go bare breasted, just add a simple tee or something).
Jena I appreciate the feedback, I'll have to play around with a few of your suggestions.

ReplyDeleteI have pretty pale skin so neutrals don't always work right on me...unless it is a darker brown for contrast.
ReplyDeleteI love the Shade classic cap sleeve as well as the drape cardigan (the berry color is so pretty...sorry it isn't a neutral).
i love this look....where is the belt from?
ReplyDeletei have many of shade's staples...and the long sleeve crew neck is my favorite base. with a cami underneath.

ReplyDeleteokay, duh...see where the belt is from. i'll have to look for a cheaper version.
ReplyDeleteMy preferred basic is blazer jacket. I gives me the curves I lack.

ReplyDeletethe off-white 3/4 sleeve shirt w/cuff has my vote. you can wear it under anything and it's thin enough to do layers, lots of layers. :)

Either the scoop necked long sleeved stripey t or a tank - both would be great basics for my wardrobe! :)

ReplyDeleteI love the Pintuck Bow Top in Charcoal because you can wear it over most anything.

ReplyDeleteAlso is the rumour that Anthropologie is FINALLY shipping to Australia early this year true ?? (please please please be true)
Would so love an actual store here to walk into and browse and try things on...but an online store would be great in the meantime
You always pick my favorite pieces! The drape front cardigan would be perfect for me, especially during this warm/cold in between season.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely the 3/4 sleeve scoop neck in off white. I'll just have to layer to keep it spotless!
ReplyDeletealphacyg@yahoo.com
Yeah, the Drape Front Cardi in Oatmeal is still my number one layer for this look!
ReplyDeleteI love the waffle henley for lounging and the interlock dress for work.

ReplyDeleteI love the blazer jacket in black, the structure of it would conceal my midsection that has lost a bit of definition after bearing two children

ReplyDeletemelaniefee@gmail.com
Can gray count? Because I would get the 3/4 Sleeve V-Neck Cardigan in heather gray.

I adore the drape front cardigan, I am also loving the Funnel Neck Zip Up. Too Cute!
ReplyDeleteI love the turtleneck dress in "heather raisin" (brown) paired with their adorable skinny belt.
ReplyDeleteOr, for another option, I'd love to wear their straight pencil skirt in "pewter" (gray) with the drape front cardigan in oatmeal.
oooh...their stuff is adorable!
A dark gray works well for me as a neutral foundation. The ribbed skirt in the pewter would be the perfect lovely for me to have around.
ReplyDeletelove the d-ring lounge vest
