Awesome-sauce

The forecast: Sunny. Blue skies. Warm.
Thoughts: Last nice day of the year? Yes. Bring on the capri leggings!
Reality: Cold. Damp. Warm for about two hours in the late afternoon.
Thoughts: Drat. Also: love my bangs. So much.

  2. Cute scarf! I bet you could have fun playing off of its fabulous jewel tones. Yowza, $9 for the whole ensemble? That's talent!

  3. Thanks for all the compliments! It's actually a funny story about the scarf--when I bought it, I also bought a similar one in a lime green, pink and cream color combo (you can see it here: http://plummyplum.blogspot.com/2010/08/four-ways-to-wear-episode-4.html). They were both uber cheap, and at that point I still wasn't quite buying into the whole 'coordinate your wardrobe and have a personal color scheme' idea. However, since buying these two scarves, I have worn this jewel-toned one (with two of my 'staple' colors, burgundy and teal) many a time, while the other one is worn infrequently. Definitely an interesting lesson...
