I think I have an allergic reaction to matchy-matchy, and I secretly love it at the same time.  On one hand it feels like the obvious choice, and I think that’s what I have allergic reactions to.  On the other hand it makes everything streamline and uniform, and the OCD side of me loves that.  

Often as a style blogger I have to remind myself that just because something seems obvious doesn’t mean it’s not good.  I recommend “formulas” and “go-to’s” like what I did here to others when they ask for styling advice (like picking out colors from the dress to pair with) , but for myself I make it harder.  I *do* want to grow my style and try new things, but it doesn’t mean I’ve gotta toss what’s tried and true and easy out the window.  And besides…it’s spring and I already have enough allergies to deal with.  No need to add more.  So, matchy-matchy it is.
