Last week I showed some color combos that I found interesting and thought I would like to use as inspirations since they used combos that wouldn’t necessarily come to me naturally.  The main reason I picked these was that these incorporated three colors instead of my tendency towards two color combos.  

Linking Up with Trend of the Month- Yellow and What I Wore Wednesday

Here is today’s Inspiration:

I would have paired the orange and yellow together, but not the hot pink scarf or blue purse.   

I chose a more coral colored top than the original orange and paired it with my new Liz Claiborne yellow skinny jeans. I opted for this scarf which I felt married well with the top and pants, while also adding the additional color purple , which guided my purse choice.

I wore this outfit to BJ’s grocery shopping today and the girl at the door checking receipts admired my outfit and told my I was bright today!   I told her that was what I was going for!  

Shoes-Franco Sarto via Ebay

Pants- Liz Claiborne-  Recent clearance from JC Penney

Dear Readers, I like challenging myself with Pinterest combinations and stretching my closet through different color combos than is my natural instinct.  Outfit Inspirations can really come from anywhere ,but Pinterest really is the most convenient for me.  Are you addicted to Pinterest?  My newest board is Inspirational Sayings, something I have collected since my teen years in little notebooks or journals…What is your favorite thing to Pin?

Gratitude- I am so grateful that I was able to go back to bed this morning and had a good 3 hour nap!  I am grateful that my daughter is starting to unpack and seems happy with her progress.  I am grateful that my family is healthy and happy!  I am grateful that I get to cook dinners for my daughter for the next year!   I am grateful that my three youngest are all sitting on the couch in the game room together as one of them is playing a game and just hanging out together, love the camaraderie and supportive nature of their conversations..
