A Little More Color

In keeping with what appears to be the theme of this week, I�m wearing color again today.  But, just a little bit:

Okay, so maybe it�s more than a little.  I can�t help myself.  As melancholy as I�ve been, I still reach for color in the morning.  Today I reached for my burgundy pleated skirt (vintage, thrifted), an orange blouse (thrifted) and a peacock-colored cardigan (a.n.a via JC Penney).  I added peacock colored tights that are actually sheer black chevrons layered over opaque teal tights (Target & Hue, respectively), my oxidized buckle belt (thrifted) to keep my too big skirt up and my trusty riding boots (Born Crown �Sosie� via Nordstrom) because, hey, they�re trusty.

I know this color combination is a little over the top for some, but burgundy and orange just holds such an allure for me.  It�s one of my favorite punchy color combinations and at a time I needed some punch, it actually did help to cheer me up.  As have all of your guys� kind comments.  You guys are the best.  For reals.

You know what else helps cheer a girl up?  Parties.  To that end, I�ve linked up to the Thursday is for Thrifters Link Party over at Spunky Chateau.  I feel better already.

Happy Thursday, Everyone.  And please know that I really do appreciate each and every one of you.
