I looove Olivia Palermo's style so when I saw this photo on FabSugar, I know I had to re-create it! I don't have an orange blazer, so I switched things around and wore an orange shirt and brown cardigan. (Note: hard to tell from the photo, but my pants are also plaid.)

Why this works: One way to experiment with color is to stick to colors that are all from the same "family." This combo works because all of the colors in the outfit are similar shades of brown/orange/yellow, which live on the same side of the color wheel!
