What I Wore - Khaki and Purple



Why can't people tell you that your pleat is off by quite a bit in the back? Why? Is it like having something in your teeth?





I love the color combo of this outfit. The purple played off the khaki/gold very well. I loved the richness of it.

This is a fun combination to play with for me. My high school's colors were purple and gold. Now it is a challenge to make purple not seem like a high school reminder. I think this is a professional version of the color combo. Do you agree?

I was NEVER a gold girl, but lately I have been finding myself more drawn to it. I am still a silver girl at heart. Hence my wedding ring and engagement ring, but I have found a new love for gold in this necklace. I think it is because the gold goes well with my hair and skin tone this summer.

How about you? Silver or Gold?

  1. By "someone" not telling you about the pleat...would that be your photog? Cuz he's a GUY...and a straight one at that...he doesn't CARE. ;)

  2. I LOVE your look today. The color combination is perfection, and your skirt is fabulous, even if the pleat is crooked. I am so covetous of that skirt. Want want want.
