sometimes, it feels good to go simple

I had a small shopping accident while in Charlottesville last weekend.  Small because I spent under $100, but accident because I really wasn’t planning on buying anything new.  However, both pieces are fabulous and I got them for great prices.  The first of them is this awesome teal colored wool jacket, which was 30% off and $45! 

Because of the bold teal color, I really wanted everything else about my outfit to be simple: black pants, black shoes and just a touch of jewelry.  It’s like making a recipe for the first time, do it exactly as the recipe calls for… only play around with the measurements or add new flavors the next time.  So next time I wear this, I may go a bit color crazy.  Watch out for it!

About

What would Krissie wear? Well, jeans, a really cute t-shirt and boots for one. But what I wear to work at my uber corporate, conservative New York City office is an entirely different story. But that doesn't mean it has to be boring. Welcome to my corporate wardrobe story: what I wear and how I do it for little money and lots of style.
