If you haven’t noticed from my previous outfit posts, I tend not to wear a lot of accessories. It’s not that I don’t like them, I’m just not used to and comfortable with them. It’s something I want to work on.
In the meantime, tops in bright colors and fun patterns are my go-to accessories. I feel like a good top can take you a long way. π
Outfit Details
Shirt: Anthropologie (very similar) Jeans: J.BrandΒ (exact) Shoes: Toms (exact)
I bought this top last Spring (for my honeymoon!) but feel like it’s appropriate for fall as well, thanks to the plaid-like print and rich color.
In a sea of plaid shirts this time of year it’s nice to stand out with a plaid alternative.
I’m also loving my new Toms wedges. They’re so ridiculously cute and so comfy. I literally forgot I was in wedges when I was wearing them. I also love how this color goes with almost anything!
Questions of the Day: Are you a Toms fan? Do you feel comfortable wearing accessories? Share links to some of your favorites please! I need to build up an accessories collection. π

Patty says
I love your outfit, especially the shirt. I want to wear the plaid look but it doesn’t work for me. As for accessories I have tons and wear maybe 1/4 of them. I like simple gold or silver hoops for earrings, the open heart necklace my sister got me which I think is from zales, and any of my Alex and Ani bracelets. I love those 3 pieces, they are simple, elegant and go with everything.
Erin says
I’ve heard a lot of awesome things about Alex and Ani bracelets! I’m glad you like yours! π
Stephanie Martin says
I love that top! It looks amazing on you and definitely works during this time of year. Those shoes are to die for! I’ve never owned a pair of Toms anything, but those wedges might change that! Lovely post!
Erin says
Aw thanks Stephanie! You would love these Toms! I can’t wait to wear them with everything!
Kat Tanita says

That shirt is cute! I need to get some more patterns in my wardrobe.
Erin says
Shirts are about the only place I do patterns, but I love them!
Patty @ Reach Your Peak says
I love those shoes! My boss has a similar pair and I keep meaning to go shopping and find them. I can’t wear heels, so wedges are really all I can wear if I want to be tall for the day π
Erin says
You would love these shoes! I’m a little obsessed with them. π

Gina @ On the Daily Express says
Oh man. I am ALL about accessories. I wear pretty basic, non-printed stuff most of the time, though. So I feel like I need accessories. But on the off chance I’m wearing plaid or a print, I definitely tone down the accessories. Forever 21 is a great place to start for accessories. π

I need to head over to my local F21! Thanks Gina!
lorna mai says
So interesting what you were saying about not being comfortable wearing accessories. I was exactly the same, more specifically jewellery. I always found it was in the way or annoying. I had to learn how to wear it! Love your shirt!
Erin says
Thanks girl! I have to learn how to wear it too!
