I don't know what it is about chartreuse, camel, nude and other earth tones like the ones in today's outfit that I love so much but they totally rock my world. I did a somewhat monochromatic look with them, but then ran with the idea of doing pops of color with accessories. The blue belt was a good start but I thought it needed more zest. An earth tone base with bright pops of color? Sign me up. :-) What do you think - would you wear this color combo?

ReplyDeleteLove this look! Any type of the same color schemes paired together (monochromatic) with pops of color rock my world too! The flower is a fun touch to the outfit too :)

I never thought of wearing a chartreuse top with a fuchsia flower pin; but it's just so *WELCOMINGLY* bright-and-cheery!! Here in (currently very gray/overcast/drizzly!) Central Pennsylvania, sometimes I think (since my field is nursing) that it would be genuinely patient-friendly, if, say, Clerical Staff Assistants in Medical Offices----who usually have *first contact* with Incoming Patients----would be allowed to increase their use of color in their daily Office Workwear. If I were a weak and sick patient, that little *pop* of Color Cheer............ (i.e., along with a kind, welcoming smile, like yours!)............ sure would make ME feel better, you know.
ReplyDelete'Totally love EVERY single thing about your amazingly-creative blog, J............ keep up the *good* work!!
I love the flower and like the purse as accessories but could do without the blue belt. Other than that, I like the look but it's not my absolute fav.
ReplyDeleteThis look is sooo adorable! I will definitely be doing this in warmer months!

LOVE. the proportions in that DVF inspiration photo are so cool and funky but hardly wearable for any "normal folk" ha! So i love what you did and how you took color inspiration while using proportions that work for and are flattering on you!
