Spotted: Brown, Black and Bunnies

I've heard a lot of bloggers debate the very heated question of whether or not brown and black go with one another. I'm not sure how I would weigh in on this question of the utmost philosophical importance, but like a lot of things I think it just depends. If it's just the right shade of black and just the right shade of brown, I think it can work. Sometimes manufactures make it easy and put the two colors together, which is the case with this skirt I am wearing today from Madewell.

Now, should you wear bunnies and dots with brown and black? Why not? I decided to be a little playful today with the addition of my bunny loafers from Minna Parikka and my spotted Sandrine tote from Clare Vivier (now known as Clare V., I think?). Well, both the tote with its whimsical polka dots and the loafers with their cheeky ears pointing up bring a smile to my face, so whether or not they go together with my brown and black stripes is a moot point in my book!

      Thank you Ada! This embellished top was only $18 and I think I'll be getting a lot of use out of it!

    I love your style! I recently purchased the Kate Spade Melody skirt (pink dots silk pleated) and was wondering if you had any tips for the care of it? I seen you wearing this in one of your posts so I thought I would ask ;-) thx!

      Thank you! I don't really do anything special in regards to the care of the Melody skirt. Unfortunately, since it's silk it needs to be dry cleaned if it gets dirty, but I wear mine only occasionally so I haven't done that yet. So far the pleats have stayed intact and don't need any pressing or ironing because that would be a pain! Good luck with yours!
