What I Wore: Tangerine

Winter decided to make an appearance over the weekend. It tried to damper our celebration but it didn't.  I always have the hardest time deciding what to wear when it rains becasue I want to be cozy, I want to stay dry and I am not a big layers person. I planned out outfits (and wore them obviously) but didn't really have an opportunity to photograph them. Monday morning the sun was out but it was still on the chillier side. So I made sure to wear my favorite sweater, although it is looking a bit too big these days.

I am a huge fan of orange and I was very excited that Tangerine is Pantone's color of the season. While my top and shoes are a shade or two darker than the "it" color I feel good in it. I picked up the color-block Shoemint "Hattie's" after being on the wait list. I was fortunate to get them because they were sold out again in about ten minutes. I have had this blouse in my closet and it got a lot of wear last year. I love being able to pair my nicer blouses with jeans and flats. Now that my jeans are getting loose I am hating the way they look on me. I think the pants being looser make my legs look bigger. But I am just being picky! cannot wait to buy pants in smaller sizes soon! I kept my jewelry to a minimum. Statement earrings and a large cocktail ring was just enough. I think that even though my sweater was a little large (and over powering?) the color was the perfect compliment to the orange and dark denim. Clearly I am loving neutrals and brights...my manicure is very similar to this outfit and I am LOVING it.
