As you know, I really like to wear monochrome black outfits. Of course, that can get boring very quickly. Wearing different textures makes the outfit more interesting. At least that’s what people say. I never find a black outfit boring, but I can imagine that it is the case for others. But if you want to wear a monochrome black outfit, which actually applies to any monochrome outfit, try wearing different materials if you find it a bit too boring. Like I do today. But actually I’m arguing a bit, because the skirt isn’t black! It’s very, very dark green.
Wearing a lot of different textures
I also have a beautiful blazer in dark pine, which everyone thinks is black. I haven’t tried it on this skirt actually, now I am thinking about it as I write……Perhaps the two dark greens will lift each other up? Or perhaps I should wear a more sage green sweater on the skirt to make the skirt look more greener? I love sage green, such a English colour! But today I wanted to wear black with it. And a lot of different textures!
Embroidered corduroy skirt and lace top, wearing different textures
The skirt is a very thin corduroy with very small daisies embroidered on it. And pockets!! Yeah, need I say more! Perfect length too. The skirt was a collaboration for Instagram from Buykud, but I like it too much not to show it on the blog. I’m wearing a lace top on it, which will also be seen a lot this season collections. Actually every season isn’t it!
Suede boots and a leather belt. I am so in love with these ankle boots, I have said it before. I searched long for these ones and they weren’t cheap, but they are worth every penny! They are easy to walk on because the heel isn’t that high, and I think they look really cool.
But a lot of different textures in one outfit! To accentuate the green in the skirt, including the leaves of the daisies, I wear green flower earrings and a green/gold bracelet. I talked a few weeks ago about fillers for sagging earlubs. I asked at the clinic, but it was not for that. They do surgery to fix sagging earlubs though. Have to think about that…..I guess that would be very expensive. And they didn’t think I had very sagging earlubs. But I feel they are and I find it very ugly. I just miss my statement earrings!

What a pretty skirt and I love the shape of those boots! They look as though the front dips a little which is very flattering to the leg!

Velvet is something I should try. I am not drawn to it, but who knows right!
I like that skirt. If you didn’t tell me, I would have thought it was a black skirt. Its material and texture are also very different from ordinary skirts~

I love everything about your outfit, Nancy! It’s exactly the kind of thing I would love to wear, especially with it being black and green. It’s also perfect for Halloween (in a good way lol).

Haha, yeah, pity we don’t do Halloween here. And I love all things horor!
You look lovely! I do find that adding texture is a great way to add interest to any sort of monochrome outfit. I’m drawn to different textures anyway!

Thank you very much Joanne!
That skirt is all kinds of gorgeous, but you definitely could have fooled me, as I would never have guessed it wasn’t black!
I think it might look a treat with a sage green jumper! Loving all the different textures going on in this outfit though! xxx
Author
Thanks Ann. You hardly can see it’s green. I think a other colour would lift the green up more.
Very creative mix of textures, Nancy! I love the details-the sheer lace sleeves on your top and the sweet floral embroidered flowers on the skirt. Thanks for sharing and hosting and enjoy your weekend!

That is my favorite thing about Fall dressing! Mixing fabrics and textures. You did a great job here and I didn’ t know the skirt was pine green. Love the little details on it. Looking fab as always, and I agree with all black looks, when you wear tem, I like to mix in textures.
Have a great day Nancy!

I love the different textures in this outfit. The skirt is fabulous! I had my ears pierced when I was eight and now the holes are very low down so I’m thinking of having them pierced again. I can’t wear heavy earrings but like you. I love big statement earrings!

It’s such a pity isn’t it! I want to inform for the surgery, but I think that is a step to far for me.
