Skirt and socks should be black so the bag can be your accent piece.
I love how the only criticism here is fashion-oriented color theory. This is a special place and you all are great. Thanks for this comment.
I love talking fashion and giving outfit ideas! Wish we had communities for that here lol
Yeah, me too. We'll get there. It will just take some time.
I'm actually inclined to disagree, I feel like the outfit would be unbalanced and the white trim and doggo purse competing. The white socks at least offer a bit of balance to the look imo
I agree! Making the skirt and socks black would make things too busy on the top/top-heavy.
Maybe just change the skirt color to navy or black so it provides contrast with the purse (which is definitely the statement piece)
The purse is a statement, but one should always be able to put it down and still have a dramatic flair.
You know what? I like this better than my suggestion
But wouldn’t you say the dog bag is a statement? Otherwise, why not go with a more conventionally shaped bag? The skirt color (at least in the picture) really takes away from the bag imo.
I am also a fan of symmetry and the three white stripes bug me in a way the white trim does not.
The statement is that it isn't a statement. An understatement, if you will.
It's a big part of looking classy. Why wear a diamond studded gold watch when you can wear a normal looking watch that those in the know will recognize as expensive?
Same principle. You don't necessarily notice the bag immediately, so when you do notice it you get to appreciate the outfit a second time. There's layers, which makes it sophisticated. Classy.
