Can't Help It
When I put this outfit together, I had all intentions to do a complete black and white outfit.
{Top: Forever 21 (old), Cardigan: Zara (old), Jeggings: Forever 21 (similar), Shoes: Forever 21, Scarf: gift from mom, Bracelet: David Yurman}
But then of course, something took over me and I added this burgundy scarf. Then I threw on the burgundy shoes. There is just something inside me that can't help but wear color. I love black and white outfits, I think they are so chic, but it seems I have yet to actually wear one. It's quite possible that I'm just obsessed with color. Or maybe there is something wrong with me. Or perhaps, and the most likely answer, is that no one really cares and I'm just thinking way too much about my clothes! What do you guys think?
Also, I'm now accepting March sponsors!

But I do love the pop of colour:) I love black-and-white outfits too, but during winter, I love seeing colours to brighten up the day, so I think u did a fab job!
I promise I do care:) I love style philosophy. It could be that color is just more you and your version of the black and white requires a pop of color. Don't fight it, embrace it. I'm just the opposite. although I'm loving the brights, I can only handle it in small doses on myself...no matter how much I try to break away from my inclination towards neutrals.
You look amazing as always!

Somedays you just have to be one with the crayon. Open the box and say today I am gonna be pink. color sets the tone for the day.
Of course today I am slouchy. I must have missed that crayon.
It could be the weather. I know when it nasty outside I always what to wear some color.
Love your outfit <3 the scarf is pretty!!

love the casual look, the scard is amazing! and I hear you on the white and black outfits, somehow I always end up with color without even meaning too!
www.anightinnyc.blogspot.com
Black and white with several touches of color isn't bad. If this were a black scarf and some black wedge pumps (instead of the burgundy), I still think this would be another great look for you. I surely adore your style here. Great outfit, Yi-Chia!

nothing wrong with a little addition of color! Looks great :)

I love the scarf! Your outfits are so colorful and that is what I love about your style.
I'm trying to introduce color into my wardrobe but I noticed that I tend gravitate towards black and white a lot when left to my own devices. :)

I'm the same way! I usually end up adding some sort of color to a white and black outfit, though on occasion, I'll just keep it black & white. color makes everyone happy - so why would you not want to wear it??

I am the same exact way!!! It's so hard for me to JUST wear black and white. I MUST have some sort of color pop. I am dying over this scarf! You know it's my addiction!!!

I always LOVE the pops of color that you incorporate. Black and white is always beautiful but color makes it interesting! Also, totally forgot to send you my button. Fail whale.
Lovely outfit :)

I'm totally the same way. Somtimes I'll try to keep my outfits colour-less but it's impossible. There's a pop of colour in the shoe, or the scarf, or the accessory. I love your look!
I love the burgundy with the black and white! Those little pops of color make an outfit so much more interesting most of the time :) I don't blame you for always adding them!

Looking ever so lovely, the scarf makes the outfit pop!
Color is always good, especially as an accent. Maybe the black and white thing is one of those things that sound like a good idea, but just aren't a priority.
Very cute look! Love the scarf! It adds just the right pop!

Haha being obsessed with colour is a good thing! It's good to jazz up a black and white outfit with some colour :D Love the pumps you have on!
Black and white or black and white with a pop of color... Either way you look cute!
Girl, you've been killing it with the cute winter outfits! I really, really like this one, I love grays mixed with black and the burgundy scarf just looks so effortless cool. I've had those days where I intended to wear a certain out and then it takes over and ends up being something completely different.
Stop it! You are so cute! This is totally my kind of outfit. I'd wear tis look, but not look as adorable as you ;)
Your personality always shines through your clothes:)! If this outfit didn't have color it would not have the signature Yi-chia look:)! I'm glad you added the colored scarf and heels!
Lovely outfit!
you look very pretty! :)
You look so gorgeous, Maylee! I love your scarf so much! The splashes of color really make the outfit pop! There's nothing wrong with you LOL I totally care =P

This made me laugh a little bit because I'm the same way! I have a hard time fighting off the urge to put a pop of color in black and white outfits. I think maybe it's because you can wear literally ANY color, including colors that seem to match nothing!
