  4. See, I always would have stuck to this outfit in the winter with a pair of knee high brown boots. Thank you for showing me that this outfit is possible for summer time, simply just add a pair of heels! Love the way you rock it!

  13. I've learned that belts add structure and this one works for you. Plus, you loop the end like the cool kids do!

  15. I do think it takes the perfect kind of brown to go with black - and this brown is just the kind I would choose! Great looks, lady! Carylee | morepiecesofme.com
