  16. I really like this look. It's so refreshing and warm. Yellow can be a hard color to pull off but it looks very nice here.

  18. I love color too (maybe it's a Florida thing - I'm originally from Tampa!) so I'm gonna have to hunt down that Refinery 29 article. I noticed that J Crew did a little editorial on color combos along the same lines. Here it is - http://www.jcrew.com/womens_feature/lookswelove.jsp
