I was just matching my socks to shirt the other day and my fiancee made fun of me, I told him it was a product of the 80s and I don't think he believed me. Haha.

I was really inspired by your bright teal and red outfit a few weeks back. Ohhh and I totally want that skirt. So cute. That being said I'm not sure that coral blouse is the best pairing? I do applaud you for trying something different. Have you thought of a hot pink or a fuchsia? Maybe a yellow?CRibbitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01837122308475094998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35612423.post-13301986835013968072009-08-20T15:33:41.162-04:002009-08-20T15:33:41.162-04:00Wow!

I'm usually unsatisfied with outfits that have one piece that I feel doesn't make sense because it doesn't relate to anything else, so for those I usually throw in something that matches. I try to make those matching items small and subtle, rather than going all out with the matching belt, shoes and handbag. But I'm a child of the 80's too, so I'm hampered by my history.Audihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13578485770637036384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35612423.post-10402632680200493942009-08-20T12:10:33.339-04:002009-08-20T12:10:33.339-04:00perfect skirt!! loved!perfect skirt!! loved!Lualhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16810881862929807124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35612423.post-20637576435373664712009-08-20T11:20:26.468-04:002009-08-20T11:20:26.468-04:00Mmmmm...
