Style Inspiration: Angelina Jolie

Growing up in New England I was pretty traditional in my color choices. Lots of navy, red, white, khaki and a whole lot of black.  Black was my color pick of every occasion, it is classic and never goes out of style.  It worked with my personality and always made me feel comfortable.  It wasn’t exciting but it worked.  As I edged out of my twenties and into my thirties I found a friend was pushed my no color boundaries and suddenly I found myself grabbing yellows, greens and aqua, even light pink to wear on a daily basis.  Honestly, it was scary but also a tiny bit freeing.  As the years past my wardrobe glowed with color.  I reveled in it. 

Now, exactly a decade later I find myself craving the simplicity and effortless style that black brings no matter the occasion or day.  I crave wearing it more often and adding in small notes of color in my accessories.  I’m finding that Angelina Jolie with her six kids (I am not getting into her help, her money or any of that.)  wears black almost every time we see her step out. It is easy, always works well and is timeless.  That’s why she is my style inspiration these days.

 

Last Friday I put together this look when H and I went to see Bruno Mars in concert. It was easy but I felt so good in this dress both comfort wise but pretty too. I just wish I had taken actual pictures.
