I spent all day tapping around the halls in my happy yellow shoes, which have a sensible little kitten heel. And I must admit, I absolutely love the sound of heels on linoleum floors. I love how loud they are, how they bring back all those memories of elementary school and that slightly nervous teacher's-coming feeling, and I most especially love that when I walk past a room full of freshmen they all sit up a little bit straighter. It's the sound of authority.
As soon as I tried on this cozy purple sweater, I was imagining it over my summer dresses. It's unbelievably soft, and it has pockets! I expect that I am going to be snuggly warm in it all fall.
And just a few days later, Kasmira from What I Wore Today rounded up some pictures of women rocking purple cardigans. Turns out, I'm not the only one who likes yellow with purple!

Thank you! You're so sweet. I was pretty happy with the colors of it too - especially the happy shoes. :)
ReplyDeleteI got the roomie to help out with photos. She does good work.
This is such a lovely, pulled together outfit. It reminds me of some of the styles at Academic Chic and it suits you perfectly. Also, can I steal those flats? Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Tina! In case I haven't said this before, you can steal my shoes any time. :)
