Gray days and blue jeans

I'm pretty sure I got dressed in under a minute this morning, which is record time for me. A white-button up (with the looks-effortless-but-actually-just-lazy front tuck), new colored denim, suede peep-toe booties, a couple long necklaces and I was out the door. I usually roll up the sleeves of everything, but this time, I kept them long and left the cuffs unbuttoned to add to the polished-effortless look.

I used to have this thing where I couldn't wear bright colors on gray days, but today I threw caution to the wind and wore my bright, happy pants even though it was dark and dreary. I'm such a risk taker.

Do you have any personal fashion *things*? 
And not wearing white after Labor Day doesn't count. That's just silly.

Love the look! I tend to always fall back on black, white and grey so I am working on updating the wardrobe with actual color. Completely outside my comfort zone!

JiH - I wear black/gray ALL winter. Hoping to work my blue and red jeans into more outfits this season!

my thing was that things had to match all the time - and thanks to blogging and print mixing i've thrown that 'thing' out of the window. in fact thanks to blogging i've thrown lots of fashion 'things' out... and being a Mom, you also throw 'things' out...

btw love the double necklace - am totally doing the same thing myself these days - when i wear one i think hang on this looks silly and i add another, what's with that?

Patricia - Thank you!

Anna - If I wore prints, I'd mix them all the time! Unfortunately, I gravitate to solids or stripes. And I don't think I'm physically able to just wear one necklace. ;)
