5 Mustard Yellow Outfit Ideas
1) Dinner With a Friend
The first look in my mustard yellow outfit ideas exemplifies how to incorporate other colors while staying comfortable! Check out the blue flowers on the tunic shirt. They tie into the rich blue denim jeggings perfectly. Either way, the look of a tunic over jeggings is always a great choice. This shirt comes with the necklace, so your jewelry option is already figured out for you. A blue handbag keeps the floral theme going. Rich, chocolate brown sandals go with all of the colors as a safe neutral, but continue the casual feel.

2) Let’s Taco ‘Bout It
Second for mustard yellow outfits is a lovely shirt with plenty of crochet details, a tie front, and a button keyhole back. Again, we see here how rich blues work their magic with mustard. You can easily swap the shorts out for capris or jeans depending on the temperature. The taco bag is tricky to pair with an outfit. It works here because of the cheese! Here are those brown sandals again, but they do incorporate with the purse strap. Since the shirt has enough details going on, dainty earrings are your perfect way to add some shine without distraction.

3) The Queen of Casual
Third for mustard outfit ideas is a super causal option. It starts with a floral pocket front tee that features a faux tuck. The deep, rich flowers are great with those blue shorts again. As with outfit number one, this shirt also comes with a necklace! I am bringing more browns over blues into this outfit with the handbag and sandals.

4) Hotel Bound
If mustard yellow shirt outfit ideas do not come to your mind easily, here is the perfect way to layer one up! Pay attention to the flowers on the kimono, as they feature a mustard yellow center that goes with the tank top perfectly! You might even think they came together as a set. Since the kimono is a neutral, cognac sandals and handbag work good with it. This outfit is topped off with Bermuda shorts and some gold earrings. I have another example of mustard and a kimono in my romper outfit look book.

5) Mustard Meets Runway
The last of these mustard yellow outfit ideas is my favorite of them all! While shopping, I found this mustard overall or pinafore dress first, and it was simply oozing potential. Next, I found the booties and knew that I had a pair! Sometimes building an outfit by starting with one piece and working up from there is the easiest. I view this as more of a Fall look, so I layer the pinafore over a long sleeve bodysuit. White is the perfect neutral to balance out all of the mustard. The fringe earrings match so well I can hardly stand it. A white handbag provides further balance, but why not be extra and go for faux feathers?! Pinafores are so much fun for adults to appropriately re-visit school time looks, and I have a punk and preppy plaid version that you cannot miss.
