Neutrals and Textures

Neutrals.  Is it weird that an outfit of ALL neutrals kinda terrifies me?  Fear of boring.  Don’t get me wrong, I *love* them on other people, but when I put one on I get a little scared.  I’d rather rely on a pop of color, a little print, or a statement necklace to trick you into thinking I’ve got an ounce of style.  But without those, what’s a girl to do?  One thing I’ve learned from Stacy and Clinton: textures!  Play with textures. I traded the usual colored flats, splash of print, or statement necklace for textures like faux leather, suede booties, or some texturing on the sweater.  I actually didn’t even realize this outfit was all neutrals until after the fact, thanks to all that.  Are you more scared of an outfit of all neutrals or one with a lot of color?
