Beige Capsule Wardrobe with Accessories in Celadon Green, Brown and Light Blue

January 19, 2015

To show how very versatile these “accessory families” can be, I chose six beige garments for today. From these six pieces I put together six outfits. Then I picked three of the families from last week, and show each of those against the beige outfits.

Some of the families that had a really strong silver or “cool” cast to them didn’t dance terribly nicely with the beige, but these warmer accessories just look wonderful with the simplicity of the classic garments.

So many possibilities…

Blouse – Uniqlo, cardigan – Uniqlo,  jeans – Uniqlo, V-neck sweater – Uniqlo, skirt – Marc Jacobs,  silk dress – Jaeger, perforated flats – Earthies,  kitten heel pumps – Stuart Weitzman

Striped scarf – Armani Collezioni, station chain aventurine necklace – toosis, sliver earrings – Alexis Bittar,  stud earrings – Alexis Bittar, floral brooch – Alexis Bittar,  round drop earrings – YooLa, horn bracelet – LeJu,  fringed scarf – futabaya, pleated scarf – Cathayana, pendant – Alexis Bittar

smoky quartz earrings – toosis, rough cut smoky quart ring – Kasturjewels, multi-stone necklace – Alexis Bittar, fringed scarf – Yuh Okano, two  strand necklace – Open Sky, mixed print scarf – Mila Schon, square faceted earrings – Stephen Dweck, medallion print scarf – Nordstrom, braided  leather bracelet – Givenchy, oval earrings – Alexis Bittar

    Beige, brown with gold and I am happy. Oddly enough, even as I am graying, these are still good colors for me.

      I could also see teal, rust, warm red, burgundy, forest green, or purple used here in accent clusters.

      And how about warm ballet pink, navy, cream, black, pale dusty blue, soft coral or turquoise? The options seem endless!

    Dazzling post! I'm now on a serious verdigris accessories quest. What other color tags, Janice, besides seafoam and laurel green and eucalyptus, do you suggest that I might try?

    Love the brown with gold with the beige. Of course, I would have to add a bag with personality, something like the ones that Burberry made this past year.

    In January 2023 THIS post pulled me in and was an aha moment for me. I finally realized why I buy clothing in colors I love, but I’m underwhelmed when I have an outfit on. I’ve been drawn to the teals and corals, but need to be wearing the eucalyptus and geranium. Beige? I’ve never even thought of that as a color. It’s invisible as far as I was concerned. I’m enlightened. Thank you.
