The Creative Closet || Color Of The Year: Marsala

I never gravitate towards the color red or anything even close on the color wheel. I'm not sure why, the color just never really appeals to me when I'm shopping. But when I saw the color of the year, marsala, I was in love! It's such a rich and deep color. It's actually the color of what was once my dining room, but now my living room. Marsala is a color I would purchase in a pair of skinny jeans, a blazer, lipstick or even a hat. As for finding it in my closet, I could only find these heels. It's hard to believe that's my only piece in this color! Probably because blush and black are taking over #oopsie

PS. Would you like to be a co-host in April? Click here to see the prompts and sign up!

Marsala is obviously Jana's color if you ask me. So pretty with her golden locks! I love how Jalyssa added silver accessories, something I never would have thought about! See their full outfits by clicking on their names.

PPS. Oh and tear jerker, next week will be my last Creative Closet until several weeks after Maddox is born. Ironically I am taking off on one of my favorite prompts, "Add a Blazer". Y'all know I love a good blazer! The lovely Amanda from Life With Grace will be taking over my spot and I can't think of anyone better! Her style is fabulous. So join us next Tuesday pretty please :)

I am so glad the link-up this week is about Marsala since I love that color. I need some pumps in that color, like yours. Your earrings and shoes are gorgeous and I love the hairdo. Please after the baby, as he gets a little older, show us a little tutorial on all your cute braids. Thanks so much. =))

Pleasure joining you and Jana again, this week.

<3 Ada.

Hey Headturner! Seriously, you are gorgeous. And you make me feel a little bit better about my outfit since the marsala is only in the accessories too!

So many things to say! First, you look beautiful as always. Second, 100% bittersweet that next week is your last Creative Closet! I will miss your posts but it mean Maddox is almost here!!!! Three, your photography has gotten AMAZING over the last few months and I keep meaning to tell you. Way to go, girl!

I'm going to miss all of your stylish outfits, but I can't wait to read all about Maddox and your new adventure as a mom!

Love all of the jewel tones here, marsala sure makes for an elegant heel! Way to go :) The photography is awesome! Does your hubs shoot them? Mine does, and it's pretty fun teaching him!

Love the pop of color that the heels bring! You look fabulous, girlie!

I love how this look is so casual and then the pumps sum it up and make it so stylish! Mixing colors and textures is a favorite of mine so your outfit is perfection! And I am sure you belong in a maternity magazine!

I love the other colors you worked into this outfit! The rich green and blue play off your heels perfectly!! And your hair is fabulous. You are just such a gorgeous, model status lady!! :)

Such a great way to incorporate Marsala into your outfit; subtle but stylish :)

You are just fabulous! Love those shoes.

You'll be missed, but you have such an important "job" to do in the mean time! Can't wait to see little Maddox!

You have the cutest baby bump ever. Seriously.

Way to go out with a bang pretty lady! We will miss you in the linkup but it is for the most noble cause ever! I LOVE these pumps. All my heels are in the standard neutrals, I think a deep red would be the perfect addition since it goes with so many colours but is a bit more fun! Going to keep my eye out at Target next time I'm in the states!
Paige @ Reasons to Come HomeMarch 5, 2015 at 4:34 PM
that braid! I need to see a tutorial on how you do it!
