The Green Monster

Carrie & Moss dress, Nasty Gal jacket, Siren shoes

Green Monsters: power-packed smoothies full of nutritional goodness - ridiculously green; refreshing. Incidentally, that was the first thing that sprung to mind as I flicked through the pictures. I bring to you the second of my bridesmaid-to-street challenge with Carrie & Moss. There is something about a sneaker wedge that is able to dress up or down an outfit in a way that strangely, neither sneakers nor wedges can. I hereby deem it the most versatile shoe of the season. The metallic moto jacket was bought on a whim (one of those late night online sale trawls, you know how it is) and straight into the closet it went, never again seeing the light of day. Until I had a lightbulb moment and the tonal dressing part of my brain took over - 'why not load colour, with even more colour?' is the philosophy here. I love the satisfaction when shades of colour come together, none competing for the limelight and instead, complementing one another gracefully. Somewhat comparable to a green smoothie, no?
