Endnotes:

This is outfit two of the Complimentary Color Challenge, a.k.a. Module 1 of How to Combine Colors. This outfit was largely inspired by A.’s outfit yesterday,in which she also layers a purple dress over a black dress, so I can hardly take creative credit. Since I teach in this outfit and the purple dress is too short for an appropriate teaching ensemble, I took my cue from A. and layered it over a black dress to add length. I love how the yellow pops against the purple and black and think I will definitely do this color combination again! -S.
