Finding yourself matching the weather?!

Now that the glitz and glam of the holidays is over, its easy to find ourselves slipping into a wardrobe funk. With Ottawa's dark skies looming, its hard to feel inspired to wear anything other than all black outfits. We even start to convince ourselves that adding gray to an outfit is spicing it up!

For those of us who aren't vacationing in the Carribean this season, its tricky to know how to incorporate yellows and aquas into our wardrobes. Just because we spend so much time in colder climate doesn't mean there should be no warmth in our outfits.

Make your New Years Resolution to incorporate more colour!!

This can be done in many ways and to different degrees. Try opting for no black at all by combining bolder shades like Cobalt Blue or Crimson Red with a more neutral Brown, Rust or Cream.

If you're not able to give up your black all together, opt for accessories with colour or a coloured cami that will brighten up your outfit. Accessories don't have to just include jewellery, try accessorizing with a bold purse, a bright scarf or some fabulous pumps.

Even though we can't control the weather, we can choose brighter skies for our wardrobe by adding in touches of colour. Plus, starting this now will make the transition to spring that much easier!
