I’ll be the first to admit I’m not that great at wearing browns! I know it’s a neutral, but black has always been my go-to “neutral” and I like having a wardrobe where it’s mindlessly easy to mix and match pieces, so I just never really thought to add much brown to it! I’m trying to change things up a bit though (hello, 2019 resolution, maybes?), and changing color palettes is an easy way to go! Since my moto jackets are such a staple for me, I wanted to add a tan/beige one to my closet–I loooove this one so much! It isn’t plus size, but it’s an XXL and fits my 18/20 frame easily. Highly recommend it if that sizing works out for you!
I also recently went on a shopping spree at Forever 21 and picked up this plaid skirt. I love the kind of classic, vintage vibe it has and thought it would be a fun pairing with the leather moto! To play on the plaid print in the skirt, I topped the look off with a plaid scarf in a pretty rust color. I grabbed these super budget-friendly ankle boots that I initially shared in this post, and my Gucci soho disco in Camelia. 🙂
This is the last post before Christmas Eve!!! I can’t believe we’re already almost at the end of 2018. It’s nuts! I hope you all have an amazing pre-Christmas weekend! 🙂

Very nice look!
If you had not said that you’re not that great at wearing brown, I would not have known because this look is fabulous!
The Style Intermission
I too struggle with wearing beige, brown, nudes in general. I especially can’t wear nude/khaki colored pants. I find the color is just too unforgiving and unflattering. Nudes show too much reality for me lol. They can display all the lumps and bumps other neutrals can hide for me. Black, white, and gray are so much easier to wear than anything on the nude spectrum. I’d love to wear a nude/khaki/beige/brown monochromatic look but I just cant =( le sigh…
I feel like that about pants, too! Maybe give the monochrome look a shot with a skirt?? I’m loving the neutral head-to-toe looks and while I mostly see it done with wide leg pants, maybe a skirt could have the same effect!
