Citrus Pop


Yesterday was one of those bitingly cold days (I got a brain freeze walking two blocks to Starbucks) where the weather affects your entire mood. My cure on days like this: colorful clothes (ie: a mustard colored blazer) and a phone catch-up sesh with a close girlfriend. It was tangerine denim with a matching orange lip and a phone call with my newly engaged college roomie for me... worked like a charm!


Equipment Blouse.  Rag and Bone Blazer and Jeans.  Deborah Lippmann Polish.  Bottega Veneta Sandals.

that second picture is so nice! I love graphic prints and the completely cut out back is a nice touch.

Mustard and bamboo, two colors that keep on giving, especially on a blazer or a pleated skirt!
