Going to a restaurant - nicer but not too fancy. And in Austin, no one dresses up anyway. The sheer fact I won't be wearing jeans will be craziness. But no jeans! Any suggestions?


Sooo should I wear this?



With brown pinstriped pants and maybe some copper/gold shoes? I think a trip to Nordies is in order.


Or this?


In black and not tied so tight, open a little deeper on the chest


 in light pink



Also, what kind of shoes and accessories do y'all suggest? I'm trying to go for a chill, casual, sophisticated look.

Hey, i didn't know you're in Austin!  I think you're the closest one to me.  I like the 1st option w/the brown & pink pinstripe pants.  I think that gold shoes would look nice too, it dresses the outfit up in a not trying too hard way.  Maybe wear some thin-long gold earrings.  Other than that I'd keep the jewelry simple.

I didn't know you were from Texas either! Do you live in Dallas? Just a guess 'cause everyone lives in Dallas!


I want to go to Nordies and look for some goldish shoes - I have some roundtoed pumps but I really want something that will show off my pedi so I want something strappy. Does that sound like it would work? It's not like it's cold here or anything...

Haha, no- Im in Houston. 


I think that gold strappy would be cute. I dont know if you have a DSW there, but I got some Kenneth Cole one's for like 30 bucks.  They are super cute.


 


Have fun!

Well, I'm not from Texas but can I vote anyway or is this a Texas exclusive post, just kidding


I vote for #1 with gold/copper strappy shoes and a brooch gathering the cowl neck maybe to the side, make sense?  Have fun and don't do anything I wouldn't do

Awesome Leah, that will be so cool. Houston is pretty fun I suppose.  Unless you're coming from some bad ass city....


On the other hand--the outfit looks fabulous.

Love the outfit! Those are just like the pants I was contemplating. I'm definitely hitting Nordies up tomorrow at lunch to see what I can find. And, if all else fails, I can wear the black outfit if I can't find the right shoes.


So are we official that in the brown vs. black war, the brown wins? It's pretty plain jane though, but I don't really see any way to spruce it up besides the accessories. Ah well, maybe I'll go simple for once in my life!

I kinda know what you're saying about the brooch but do you have a pic? And what, exactly, is it you wouldn't do????

I'm an Austin girl! Born and raised! Where are you going out on your date? Good to see all the Austinites on the board.

One of my favorite color combos this spring is Brown & Pink - I also like the idea of pinning a brooch on the neck of the sweater to create some 'custom ruching'.
