Endnotes:

While E. was worried that her shoes made her a cheater yesterday, I’ve found shoes to be the best way to complete a split complimentary look. I am very much in my comfort zone with this blue-green and blue-violet (split blue as compliment of orange) but I also love the unexpected pop added by the orange shoes.

I also have to say the pleased and relaxed expression in both of these pics has everything to do with the gorgeous weather we are having today! -A
