Colorwheeling


I've never thought to wear these pieces together before. Huh. The orange top I've had for a few years but I've only worn it once or twice, and not yet on this blog. I don't really have a good explanation for that... Now that I'm looking at it in pictures, I think it could be fabulous with a pencil skirt for a funky, casual look. (DUH!!)

Jacket - LOFT / Printed top - Lane Bryant / White pants (cuffed) - New York & Co. / Wedges - LOFT

The white bottoms are pants I just cuffed cuz they weren't quite long enough for heels but too long for flats. When life gives you lemons, eh? Plus I just think cuffing them makes for a better casual look overall, even if they do make my legs look a little shorter than they are. On the other hand, they show off these ankles of mine that I've really come to love. And the blue nylon jacket? This baby's become a versatile little topper for many an outfit.


I guess it's the blue and orange part, though. My school colors are blue and orange and, though they are naturally complementary colors (saith the color wheel), I don't like wearing the combination lest I be mistaken for a superfan. But this is doable, methinks. Besides, it's the off-season.
