Sartorial Saturday–Color Styling with Cues from Nature

Stylists will often tell you to look to nature for ideas when choosing colors for outfits, so I decided to go for a color combination I’ve previously tried to avoid…black and yellow, like a bumblebee! The foundation of the look is the Miss Candyfloss Harriet-Naia dress (which I have actually paired with some black accessories in the past, but not so intentionally).

It’s a bold and cheerful look!

How does nature inspire you to style outfits?
