(<em>Side note: I&#8217;ve realized that I&#8217;m one of those people who tends to be drawn to more solid colors and monochrome looks, but I really want to challenge myself to do more print and color mixing.)<\/em><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/WhatsHaute.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/basta-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-24717\" alt=\"My style: H&amp;M floppy camel hat, Prada Baroque 55mm Round Sunglasses, M\u00b7A\u00b7C Lipstick in 'Chili', Ellen Tracy Wool Blend Trench Coat, Marc by Marc Jacobs Chinati Sweater via TJ Maxx, Basta Milano Cognac -
