If you’re scared to mix patterns or even sport a sock with a peep toe bootie, throw out those rumored style mishaps and turn them into a look that’s both noteworthy and trans-season appropriate.  Take cues from Rashante Lee who’s known for keeping it real with her east-coast charm, while also keeping her style ultra fashionable. Lee’s smart mix of hues and preppy bootie/sock combo turns a usually simple look into something to spotlight.

Pink Slip’s Style Tip: Maroon works as a pseudo-neutral, meaning it easily styles with mostly any other color. So pull out your favorite maroon pieces, like a cropped jean or button blazer, and pair with other staples to break out of your go-to black styling rut.
