The Brown Family

Another office-friendly outfit with brown tone-on-tone.

Why it works:
- The outfit consists of neutral brown pieces.
- The draped skirt's volume is offset with the fitted top. The deep V-neck and the buttons lead the eyes to the focal point of the skirt at the middle of the waist.
- The chunky locket necklace keeps the eyes from staying only at the middle section of your body.
- The inner cami keeps the outfit office friendly.
- The shoes with tall ankle cuffs work well with the skirt which is relatively short.
- The jacket's relaxed fit plays off the skirt's silhouette.
- To add a little surprise, the simple structured bag provides contrast to the relaxed fit pieces.

43. Montreal

Number 43 in the 60 City Challenge is Montreal, Canada. I googled Montreal street style and found it to be on the relaxed casual side. This is a good break for me because I have been doing a lot of dressy sets lately. Suspenders seem to have come back, at least in a small way. These jeans have suspenders hanging on the side and the legs rolled up to mid calf -- so cool! The button-down top is made with silk so the outfit is still a little dressy. Isabel Marant's cotton and linen blend jacket has chic buckles, belts and tabs. The brown lace-up boots lend a rugged look. And the Proenza Schouler's brown bag is a very versatile piece that can be used again and again. I top off the look with accessories in antique brass: studded bracelet set, dagger earrings, and  a large wire wrap ring.

Pink

The oversized pink flower graphic on the black tee is so pretty. I pair it with black skinny trousers and top it with a pink belted summer jacket. To keep the outfit casual, I choose pink sandals that feature buckle details to play off the same details on the bag. The blue color on the scarf helps break the color monotony.
