Too Perfect

My winter wardrobe is looking a bit blah. I have perfectly coordinated outfits; what's wrong? Thanks, Linda

You may have overdone the perfect outfit thing. Try adding an unexpected color to your coordinated ensembles. If you are wearing a brown outfit, look at red shoes; for navy, add a taxi cab yellow sweater, and for gray, add chocolate boots. It's easy to drop a knit tee, or a cardi, in an unexpected color over a neutral blouse and a black skirt, to shake things up a bit.

Remember that you can also bring in a bag in a bright green, or purple. And don't forget bright beads in an uncoordinated color. Too much matching (especially of a jacket and skirt or pants) in a non-formal work environment or social setting, is dated.
I have a B&W large houndstooth pencil that I wear with black patent boots and a white shirt (what else?) but in February, I added a very bright red silk knit short sleeve tee over, not a black one.
