Color Crush

Tuesday, November 06, 2012

I had planned on leaving home in just this green top with fuchsia pants... until I started feeling a little bit self-conscious. I added an extra navy blazer for its dark neutral color (which helps tone down the overall brightness), and because the blue matches the stripes on the tee. Then did I feel more like myself.

Happy Election Day, voters!

    1. HAHA noooo, these photos are from a week or two ago. Though I wore the same blazer today with a turtleneck and a button-up. But then I had to go home and add my ski jacket before going back out to stand in the cold to vote.

    1. I can't remember if your feet are small or tiny. Can you wear size 4? This pair is right up your alley! Only downside is sz 4 is currently sold out... but it may come back in stock if you check back frequently.

  18. Great use of complimentary colors! The blazer ties in the colors very nicely. I bet you were the best dressed voter in line (assuming that you voted).
