Caramel Covered Dreams



I hate to be a broken record, but I can't get over caramel tones this fall.  No matter how hard I try and steer my mind elsewhere, I always come back to this tried and true color.  Not only is it versatile, but it can be classic, sexy, timeless, and show-stopping- IF you wear it the right way.  So instead of resisting it, I did what any well-trained creative spirit would do- I let it flow through me.  I threw together all the tones I was loving onto various inspiration boards, and then I pinned all my favorites together.  Although a few of the pieces below may seem trendy (i.e. the Free People turban and the Mallarino snake bracelet), I believe because they are in the right tone, they will last through the seasons.  One great trait of caramel tones is that they can be juxtaposed with both black or virtually any shade of brown and still look chic.  Another great trait is this color family work well on brunettes, blondes, or even my favorites- red heads!  The versatility of caramel trumps any other color in my book, while still displaying femininity and sexiness.  What do you think of my top picks?
