Paint It Brown



Something about the long hours for graduate school has turned me about as a glamorous as Oliver Twist. I'm hoping to ring in the new year with a cuter interpretation of Dickens--"chic" oversized cashmere sweaters, playful brown pieces like this See by Chloe brown tweed dress, and neutral makeup.

Also, if you feel too much like a librarian wearing browns, everything can be spiced up with smoky fragrance, great lipstick, and a few knuckles worth of estate jewelry. Jewelry doesn't have to cost $79,000 from Tiffany's and be encrusted in diamonds, though that would be nice too.

More, please?
