Today’s outfit is what I called my “toned down” look.  I started with black and brown basics, because they always makes for an easy foundation, but it just wouldn’t be me without a few pops of color.  A neon cardigan, a bright clutch, and bold nail polish and there you have it — an outfit that’s perfect to usher in the weekend.  Happy Friday everyone!
