I’ve been joking that “mustard and ketchup” is my new favorite color combination, and as funny as it sounds, they really work well together! It’s a great way to go into the colder months with a pop of color that mixes and matches well with the season’s heavy bout of neutrals. In this look, the centerpieces are certainly the crimson NYDJ jeans and the Avon Convertible Trench Jacket, which has the capability to be worn in three different ways. It’s always fun to have options, especially when a flux in temperature can be anticipated or you need suitcase-friendly options when you travel. See below for what I’m wearing in this outfit, as well as the rest of the convertible trench pics (which of the three styles is your favorite?).

Avon
As you may already know, Avon has a lot more to offer than just cosmetics. I recently went to a showing of some items that are immediately available as well as a sneak peek of what’s to come in the fall. Look forward to capes, dresses, shoes and bags with most coming in at under $50! These fashion-forward items will certainly surprise and delight you; a particularly stunning pair of yellow suedge wedges is what I will have to keep on the look out at Avon.com come fall. Above are some of my favorite pieces shown, along with the brand new SuperSHOCK Max Mascara, now only $5.99 (was $9) in Brown/Black and the SuperSHOCK Liquid Lip Shine SPF 15, $4.99 (was $8).
