My top has navy stripes, my dress is black, and my shoes and belt are brown. I've heard you shouldn't combine blue and black.... I've read that brown and black look depressing together... and that pairing blue and brown only works if the blue is a lighter shade. I've also heard that shopping doesn't technically count as a cardio workout, and that goldfish crackers shouldn't be served as appetizers. Well I don't believe any of it! The next time someone tells you that you can't or shouldn't do something, do it anyway :)

You are too cute! LOVE this post! The combination of the black, blue and brown is stunning on you! You break those rules! :) And I would like to believe that shopping is a cardio workout, especially at the Mall of America!!!!!! ;)
The top looks really good layered under the dress. Very stylish :)
You daring rebel, you! Black, brown, navy, and goldfish as appetizers?! Crazy! ;) Love those shoes!

Combining all those colors totally worked! (I actually thought both the dress and the top were navy). Fashion rules are meant to be broken :)

I love it, love the layers and I can't even tell your dress black. But I love all the color mixing! And.. I've always truly believed that shopping counts as working out and I 100% stand by that! :)

I think this is a great look Heather. I absolutely agree that sometimes the rules are written so long ago that nobody follows suit anymore.
I love the shoes a lot, great look overall.

Great advice! I'm going to walk around with the mantra, "I do what I want!" Haha. Kidding! And honestly, I love the shirt layered underneath your dress. Great idea!

i so agree! plus, goldfish are delicious, and if someone says shopping isn't cardio, then they have never shopped with me!
I say create your own rules that work for you! You look amazing! I love that dress! xo
I totally agree! And you look great in these colors! (Also the dress looks navy in the pics, lol)
I know, so true!!Style is how you personalize fashion, so absolutely, wear whatever looks good on you! You look fab in all those neutrals, Heather! Way to go!
Another fab pair of shoes!!! And these colors aren't depressing AT ALL! It's very classy and timeless! Well done!

You look lovely!! I always wore black and brown together and never even knew about blue and black!!
Great look! You look lovely! XO
I like the color combination and lol'ed at your sopping and Goldfish comments!
I totally agree on all counts!
Love this combination, even more so since it breaks the rules
I love how you paired the stripes with the dress! Brown and blue, black and brown, black and blue---it doesn't matter! You look great!

I love how you do your own thing! It works! When did you get that blouse! I want!
I think this works great. I love the navy striped top underneath it, honestly in the pictures it looks like it was just made that way. Awesome pairing once again :)
Haha, shopping is totally cardio! Great pictures! Thank you for visiting my blog!!
very elegant and stylish look, the dress looks so sleek on you. Navy blue is a very classy color. I like the stripes on the sleeves, very interesting accent. The belt is a subtly chic accessory too.
