So I missed posting on the extra day of the year. I was just too busy this weekend and had to get up and leave to early for work yesterday to make it happen. How is it that I get an extra day and still run behind?
 
Anyway, I continued my newly found love of camel and gray by pairing this blazer and these pants, along with a pop of leopard. This is totally a pinterest inspired outfit.

I told you yesterday I was in a grey mood last week. Here is another grey outfit. I love the two shades with the black and white stripes and the pop of leopard. My mood has improved but the grey outfits may continue. I love grey as a soft neutral in the winter.

For most of this week, I've gone with titles that reflect the color combinations I'm wearing, so here we go again- blush and grey. I'm not a clever writer, so I just go with what works. And this color combination works not just for a title but for a great soft hued outfit. I was inspired again by a Bridgette Raes post to pair these colors, particularly to pair the shoes with this. These marsala colored shoes are one of my go to pairs for fall and winter.

A good solid

A good solid... you fill in the blank. A good solid night's sleep would be nice because that hasn't happened this week. I've been battling some allergies and congestion. But the real solid I'm talking about here is a solid color blouse. I love prints and patterns but sometimes I'm drawn to solid colors. I've been reaching for a solid color blouse a little more often lately. I've often worn this with light grey but I think it paired nicely with the darker grey.
 
And yes, I attempted a few waves in my hair. This was last week just a couple of days before my trim which was over scheduled and past due. I was at my wits end with my hair just hanging in my face, so I put a few beachy waves in it.

I don't know why I've never thought about wearing this blouse with this suit before but a quick browse through Pinterest for an outfit idea resulted in this. Of course I've worn navy and grey together before, just last week in fact, but the cowl neck blouse in the pin made me think of this.
 
I'm trying not to jump the gun on Spring colors and outfits, but I have been assessing and planning for Spring. It will officially be here in one more week! I have some pieces that I think I need to retire from my wardrobe and I have been adding new ones this week. I only made a $12 purchase in January and a $14 purchase in February, so I think I was due a shopping trip. I know that I recently said there wasn't anything out there I was just crazy about, but I have found a few pieces that I hope will update/replace some old and result in some fresh looks. Looking forward to sharing new looks soon.

I talked about this already this week -my subconscious development of a go to winter formula. I did it again. This time I was reminded by the Loft website and their pairing of tweed pants with a yellow blouse of my own yellow sweater.
 
I hope you have a great weekend.

A pop of neon

I based this outfit loosely on this version by Simply Lulu. Of course my shirt is different, and a different shade, but the idea still works. That's the beauty of inspiration- you don't have to completely copy someone, but you can use a look you like to create your own.

I was told by a coworker I needed yellow shoes. I don't think I would take neon that far. Would you?
