Green has been my favorite color as of late. Not far behind is a rich cognac brown. Today's outfit combines the two as I'm slowly easing into fall -- a jacket for the cooler mornings with a summer-y dress. (Nothing wrong with loving fall, but I'm not ready to let go of summer yet!)

I wore a similar outfit a couple of weeks back -- same top, bag, and white/green color palette. I had high expectations for the outfit because it looked amazing in my head. But in reality? ...not so much. I think the sweater tee ended up looking too "heavy" with the delicate tulle skirt.

Today's outfit is my second attempt at finding the right balance for this white sweater tee and green pairing. Though the lace of this pencil skirt is fairly delicate, I think the structured shape of the skirt ended up working better than my first attempt.

I'm not a morning person at all. So when I'm forced to wake up at the crack of dawn, you bet I'll take my sweet time enjoying the first rays of sunrise. I kept my outfit simple (coordinating colors, minimal mixing and matching) which worked out well because the peachy colors of the sunrise really is the star of the show.

The last outfit post summed up the reality of my everyday life perfectly: working a desk job in a conservative office while trying to infuse some fun with bright colors into equally boring workwear.

Today's outfit is a complete 180 from the last. Fun, crazy, and definitely not in the least boring. It's probably a bit much for my office quite honestly. Any fashion shops in need of a code monkey? Let me know. (All kidding aside, I really do love my current job)
