Just like E. said the other day, these colors feel like the perfect expression of both the great weather and my excitement about that weather.   The bright pink and green, yet another complimentary color combination, also seems like an appropriate way to finish up this weeks color homework and say good bye to the bright colors.  Starting Monday we will be back in my comfort zone — neutrals.
This week’s color challenge has been fun and has really pushed me outside my wardrobe box.  It also led me to rediscover forgotten items in my closet and give new life to t-shirts and camis relegated to the back of the drawer.  Perhaps most importantly, it has proven that I need to go shopping — I need something yellow!  -A.
