Red topper

White trousers Red Valentino - Black tank top Da Moda - Red satin wrap cardigan Via Vai - Black bag Tous -
Zebra print heels Bershka 
I am the first to admit this outfit did not work. Proportions were off, trousers looked slouchy and the layering was inadequate. While I could have chosen not to post, I chose to, because the idea is to keep this blog real and, come on, really: it's just my every day wear.

Thinks it's time to find this red topper a replacement, of course after my shopping ban is over:

I don't think it's as bad as you think it is! But skinnier pants/jeans would definitely bump it up a few notches! :D I really like the satin wrap

You are being hard on yourself! I love the colors together, especially the way you've worn them. I just got a red blazer and was unsure about it, but you are really inspiring me with the white and black!

I love everything from your outfit. xoxo

Whenever I have an outfit I don't like - unless I REALLY hate it - I never say so on the blog. I like to see what people who are more objective about it say first - sometimes, it's just my own feeling of not being comfortable, or being annoyed by an item, that gets in the way of my overall perception of it.

I like this outfit, but the red topper looks a bit sloppy - you look amazing in those trousers, though!

Oh I have days like this all the time. I put something on or together and realize how it so does not work, and seeing photos of myself in certain clothes then I realize how it is SO NOT working. I had a pair of trousers that I say myself in and was shocked at how bad they looked on me. It was bad and I just did not see it when looking in the mirror at the store, or not as clearly. LOL

¡Buenos días, Lorena! No seas tan dura contigo misma... El concepto es bueno en cuanto a los colores y el tipo de prendas. Quizás me fallen las proporciones, aunque como tú misma dices todos nos equivocamos alguna vez y ello no importa porque son estilismos de diario y ya está!

Un beso y feliz fin de semana,

I had a similar red topper at one point, and I can promise you things I paired it with were much, much worse than this look. I always like black and white with a splash of red.
