Now if you noticed, when it comes to separates, I usually don't go for the same color of both articles of clothing (top and bottom). My rational for that is that if you were going to do that, might as well wear a dress. I broke my own rules though (which I have a habit of doing) since the beautiful top which had an open back was the perfect match for my stretch midi skirt. It was just paired so perfectly that I had to wear it together. To break the red on red theme, I added gold to contrast the color while at the same time, maintaining the rather festive look to my outfit. I mean, nothing spells holidays more than shiny and metallic things right? It was a good thing that I decided to risk it and move out of my comfort zone in this aspect.
