How To Incorporate Neutrals Into Your Wardrobe
Hit Outfit

Though it can be exciting to follow the ever-changing ebb and flow of fashion trends and styles, we all can appreciate investing in some classic, neutral pieces that will go with any outfit. Neutrals may seem boring at first, but they are incredibly versatile, classic, and really make your statement pieces pop.

Browns, greys, beiges, black and even metallics like silver and gold are all considered neutral colors that you can pair with pretty much anything. My go-to neutral shade is different depending on the purpose.

For clothes, I LOVE a beige sweater. The warm color paired with rich wool or cotton is just such a comfort item for me. I usually pair a beige sweater with a pair of distressed jeans, a t-shirt or tank top, and either converses or a bold colored pump depending on how dressy I’m feeling. I also love any pairing of champagne and gold with clothes or shoes.

The majority of my accessories are either oyster or gold. The pinky-beige of oyster goes with any and everything while adding a girly flare. I usually prefer this color for handbags and shoes. With jewelry, I always “go for the gold.” I find that the yellow or champagne shades of gold pair better with my go-to color schemes for outfits than silver, but if you frequently wear bold colors, silver may be the best for you.

I recently stocked up on some neutral shoes, handbags and other accessories that I’m going to share with you! I’m also including some other neutral-toned items that I like as well.

Chic Shoes


I’m so excited about these gladiator sandals. These Sam Edelman sandals are perfect to wear all summer and even into those hotter fall days. The leather straps and gold detailing make this pair an instant go-to neutral shoe. Check them out here! They come in lots of neutral and bold colors!


Steve Madden incorporates the tassel trend in these lovely wedges. This style is great because it can be dressed up or down. When worn with a dress or white jeans and a blouse, these wrap-around wedges are sure to pump up your more formal side. If you wear them with some boyfriend shorts or distressed jeans, you’ve got yourself a comfy and classy wedge that blends to your skin tone to create the illusion of longer legs. You can check out the various shades here.


These stunning wedges pair well with any outfit. The cutouts create a beautiful design while also adding texture. They are a bit expensive, however, the quality is exceptional and they are extremely versatile. Check them out here! They also come in black!

Haute Handbags

I love the scallops and cutouts on this bag! I have a brown bag that is very similar that I got a few years back. Even though the bag isn’t a name brand, I will say that mine has held up very well considering the heaving books and technology I’ve put in it over the years. The quality of these totes is great, especially for the price. This tote comes in a variety of neutrals and is perfect for the beach or shopping. Check it out here.


Check out this cross body that pairs neutral colors and gold! I recently bought a similar style in oyster and I am obsessed with it! It’s a perfect size and blends well with my spring and summer colors. Sometimes it’s great to have a small bag like this for quick shopping trips or going out to eat when you only need the essentials like your wallet and phone. Check it out here.

If you love color blocking, this modern bag is for you! This chic cross body features pink and ecru with gold accents. Check it out here!


Exquisite Earrings

I am totally crushing on these tassel earrings. As I mentioned earlier, I am a huge fan of gold tones so I for sure love the combo of the trending style with the gold color. Check out these beauties here!


Neutral accessories and clothes are truly a good investment because of their versatility. They pair well with all skin tones, enhance your beauty without being overbearing, and can be worn in any season.

I hope this was helpful, now go take advantage of all the great neutrals out there this season!

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
