Fashion Friday- Navy jacket and pop of orange

A navy jacket with a pop of orange is a fun way to make a fashion statement. Today I am sharing a simple way to make a plain outfit come alive with just a few simple additions. A navy jacket is such a classic piece in my wardrobe. It goes with just about anything. Today I am wearing it with some jeans. Nothing special but they way I put it together might surprise you.

Fashion Friday- Navy Jacket and a pop of orange

How to wear blue on blue on blue with a few pops of color? I am here to show you how.

I started with a light blue denim blouse tucked into some darker colored denim jeans. A brown belt makes things feel crisp. The outfit at this point is just ok.

Don’t you agree?

But when I added a navy nubby textured jacket it brings the outfit to a classic level. You could run errands, go out to lunch even go on a date night in this combination.

Don’t mind my scrunched up face..I am just trying to walk the dog and take a selfie at the same time LOL!!

We are dog sitting (probably permanently) our oldest daughters dog while she finishes getting her house ready to go on the market.

Ginger is such a sweet dog and I really don’t mind having her around and taking her on walks especially when I can wear this cute outfit 😉

Accessorize with pops of color

Now to take this simple blue on blue on blue outfit to the next level by adding color! Just by adding a fun scarf adds some dimension and texture. I chose a green and light blue grey patterned scarf. I tied it up closer to my face to draw the eye to my face. 

By wearing a scarf it breaks up the solid blue colors and provides warmth. 

Remember this post where I shared this scarf with a plum colored jacket and a green maxi skirt? It is fun to create new outfits around one article of clothing.

Now for the orange pop of color! I chose to wear bright orange shoes! I know kind of crazy but I love love how it looks.

For inspiration I found this outfit (see below) on Pinterest (I think it was from Madewell years ago) and decided to try to replicate it somewhat.

I don’t have a plaid scarf like the one in the photo nor do I have the cute plaid coat but ……

Pop of orange shoes

I do have the pop of orange shoes!! I wish I had the orange shoes with bows! So cute!

It is fun to add an unexpected pop of color to your outfits either with accessories or shoes. I hope this inspires you to try something to being a little pizzazz to your wardrobe.

Karins Kottage

Welcome to Karins Kottage! There is always something fun going on! You would think after becoming an empty nester couple that our nest would be very quiet and empty but our Kottage nest is usually more full than what we started out with! You might find me hosting a birthday party or graduation party and a baby shower on the same weekend or a big outdoor get together with 25 of our friends and family in the backyard or maybe I might be in the kitchen trying out a new recipe for my hubby and I to grill on the BBQ for a quiet night for the two of us. I am passionate about entertaining and setting a beautiful table! I may or may not have an addiction to cloth napkins and fun salad plates oh and goblets too! I think I will always have a home decorating DIY project in the works as long as my hubby is on board with me haha. We have painted A LOT in the 6 homes we have owned in the 35 years that we have been married as well as re-done multiple pieces of furniture, added wall and ceiling treatments, replaced lights, bathroom fixtures and even tiled floors! I have sewn what seems like a million window treatments for our home as well as for family, made slipcovers, and duvets and even a formal dress or two!
