End Notes:
I may be accused of cheating a wee bit on this week’s color combination challenge since I’m letting this print do the color combining for me.

And I am pumping up the red quotient with the necklace!
When I looked at my picture from yesterday I was actually surprised to see how un-pregnant I looked. So, just to prove that photographs and high-waisted a-line skirts can be tricky little creatures, here’s a side view of today’s outfit:
