The Asos Ruffled Bomber 

Posted on by The Style Cake

I gotta tell you guys, in cooler weather, outerwear can totally get boring and redundant. I decided that the outerwear portion of my wardrobe needed some funking up. This jacket I’m wearing from Asos caught my eye!  Now I’m not normally chasing the trend of the bomber so I have only one more bomber besides this ruffled one. I shared that bomber with you guys in this post. 

When I saw this ruffled bomber on the Asos site, I knew I couldn’t pass it up! I really feel like this bomber could be worn for years and years to come. Unlike the usual and trendy bombers we’ve seen lately, this one doesn’t have a “time stamp” on it. It boasts a beautiful ruffled design that creates a classic and feminine look. This bomber is more than versatile and can be worn with wardrobe pieces from jeans to pencil skirts. 

This bomber is a great foundation piece for any wardrobe that allows you to be trendy without looking like it. Plus, this bomber has more of an avant garde, mature appeal than the current trend of bombers. Check out how I styled mine and leave your thoughts and questions below!

Pantone Color of the Year?

Posted on by The Style Cake

If you follow me on Instagram, surely you’ve seen that a new look went up yesterday. It’s getting warmer and warmer as the days go by so I was inspired by my pants in this look especially as well as the fact that I am wearing the Pantone color of 2017: green! 

Not as much as the color green was I inspired to wear this look as much as getting my wear of darker colors in this season. I’m definitely ready to wear brighter colors. The darker colors are reminiscent of my mood sometimes. I’m feeling like airy, light and happier spirits! 

But let’s talk about the Pantone color of the year. Now I’m not guided by the Pantone colors of the year but I think it’s fun to find some inspiration and opportunity with these colors. For instance, you may not be drawn to certain colors but observing the color of the year may allow you to be a bit more adventurous and try your hand at incorporating it into your wardrobe. It’s pretty simple to grab a shirt in that color and pair it with different pieces in your wardrobe. The color I’m wearing is not exactly Pantone based but that’s why I said inspired by….

To check out this year’s color search Pantone color of the year on Google and you’ll get a ton of information. In the meantime, check out how I styled the color green in my look of the day!
