Signature Color

I’ve quite often read about people who have a signature color in their
style and have thought
“There are too many colors to love, not for me? ”
I’ve recently found mad love for a sweater and the more I thought
about it the more I wonder if this just might become my signature color…
This all began brewing a few weeks back when I wore this outfit and received
quite a few compliments .
I had bought this sweater in 2014 when Pantone called “Radiant Orchid ”
The color of the year, but I didn’t wear it much….
Then last September, a dear friend gifted me this 31 purse for
my 50th birthday, and mad love for the color started forming….
I love the bright pop of color with the nod to the color in
my print blouse….
And another pop of color with a black and white outfit…
And don’t even get me started on how much I loved this look
with the brown, bookending it with my scarf….
How about a more subtle way to incorporate the fuchsia,
by just a touch of it in a pattern?
Then I noticed that I had other pieces that were in that shade,
beginning with this thrifted poncho……
a basic tank…
A sleeveless summer tunic
My fun loving maxi dress…
A wonderful summer shrug…
I even added pants in this color for Spring….
I think this is just one of those funny moments when life comes full circle…
After all, I had a guy in high school call me Pinky because he swore I
wore shades of it every day…. He could pick out a spot in a print of purple
and still insist it fit the nickname, he didn’t stop there he included my love
for burgundy as well….
So my dear Readers do you have a color that seems to stand out in your wardrobe as one
you have throughout different categories such as shoes, purses , jewelry, tops, pants, toppers?

It’s funny how when you really start analyzing your closet—the things you can pick out, right?
I absolutely love this color—but really I’m like you in so many ways! I really, really love them all! Of course, I might say yellow is my fave right now, but that doesn’t mean it’s my signature!!

I think in winter I have a strong affinity for green , so of course I can’t just ever pick one… My cruise is September 24th. Yes, I am excited and counting down the days, but grateful I have a month and a half to work on this weight loss…
