I've been wearing a lot of navy and grey lately so I thought I'd lighten it up a little with camel. I really like this blouse paired with the camel trousers. I saw a similar combination on my neighbor at church and decided I need to try it. Love it.
 
Hold on- Spring is coming...

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.

We have had temps in the 80's this week so I had to adjust my wardrobe a little. I don't like to be too non-seasonal at the time regardless of the temps, so I stayed with dark colors but pulled out the nautical top since I'm feeling summer here. I added a couple of pops of red to keep it from being too boring. And don't get too jealous- the temps have crashed from 80 to 40 overnight. I know that 40 would be nice to many of you, but the major fluctuations are annoying.

It's finally Friday!!! This isn't my Friday outfit. I'll be out of the office today and wearing something more casual, but I'm still glad it's Friday.
 
This blazer is pretty close to marsala, the new color of the year, although I think marsala has more brown tones. Whatever you call it, I love this color paired with navy.

This jacket made an appearance last year on several blogs I follow but seemed to be a "one hit wonder". Everyone had to have it, but then I only saw most of them style it once and move on.  I have been meaning to bring mine back out all season. I paired it with a red blouse. This first time I went with a cream color top. I guess options could be a little limited with this piece because you have to stay with the same three colors, but I love it and I'm willing to push it's limits.

A Rainy Day

Necklace- Our World option mint version
Skirt- Target option

Worn July 11, 2014
 
Any day during a summer in south Georgia is likely to turn into a rainy day with thunderstorms. That's what happended the day I wore this outfit. This is pretty basic but spiced up with some peep toes shoes and a statement necklace. I've been stuck on a blue and white color palette lately. You will be seeing more of it.

Mint and navy

Mint and navy- another great color combination. The navy keeps the mint professional. The peplum edge makes this feminine and the pencil skirt keeps it stuctured. When I wear things to the office that I might not otherwise, I do so by pairing them with neutral or structured pieces that are office appropriate. I was going to wear this to church a couple of weeks ago, but decided to wear it to the office instead the next day.

I was prepared to totally copy J's outfit but at the last minute I switched the cardigan for the blazer. It was hot and humid and I felt like the blazer would breathe better than the snugger fitting cardigan. I love the results. I've also upgraded my thrift store navy pencil skirt for this one from Target. The thrift store find had an elastic waist and wasn't always the most flattering to me.

In need of a 'do

I'm excited that I have an appointment with my stylist today. As you can see from the photos, I am in need of a "hair do". Really, color. (Is "hair do" a southern thing? I more appropriately refer to cut, color, or style, but have heard that term all my life.) The grey is showing along the part. I'm growing my hair out a little and it is even more obvious when I need color now. And I'm not afraid to admit I color my hair. I always have, even before I had grey. And I like to experiment with color. Look at yesterday's remix post and you'll see a variety of color in my hair.
 
Now on to the outfi- I really like yellow and navy together and I like the way this jacket worked with the color of these pants. Sometimes these pants can be difficult to coordinate, even though they are fairly neutral. I was inspired by this outfit by extrapetite.com.

Yellow and navy is a combination I really like. I took some old pieces from my closet and remixed them into an outfit I've never worn using the color combination. This jacket has a matching skirt and typically that's the only way I've worn it, but I'm breaking up their relationship. I've got plans for the skirt too.
