Python, Olive, Tweed.
Happy Hump Day Ladies and Gents. Is there any gentlemen who read this blog? Curious minds want to know lol. We are almost a full 2/3rds of November in and exactly today on the 19th my baby girl is 22 months old. Before we know it, we will be celebrating her 2nd birthday. Where did the year go? Poor baby is home sick with mommy today. She is on some antibiotics and she even had to take a shot. =( I of course, am on the brink of crying every time I see her take a shot. And speaking of Vivian, thanks for all your latest compliments on the recent posts with her. Much appreciated.
Now, moving onto today's outfit (which I actually wore yesterday to work), I really wanted to try pairing Olive with Hot Pink. I have actually tried it out before and even seen the color combination several times on Pinterest and I am here to tell you that it works. I started the day off with Heels (as you can tell from my Gorgeous Python Pumps) and once I was done seeing clients, I had to put on my Comfy Black Oxford Shoes (Flats) for the rest of the day. Which is a good thing, because later in the afternoon I picked up Vivian early from daycare (since she got sick and had a high fever) and I had to walk quite a bit strolling her around, and this mamma is much more comfortable in her flats than her heels. I also wanted to wear some Cypress (which is between Olive & Hunter Green) which was the second color chosen by Heidi and Marissa for their Pantone-Color Challenge going on this week. So I am happy to join them once again. I think between my Hunter Green Scarf and Olive Green Jacket I got this color covered, don't you think? And look carefully, my Button-Down is in a Python/Snake-skin Print also. Have you ever paired Hunter Green or Olive with Hot Pink or Fuchsia before? What do you think of such a color combination?
Here is the Outfit buttoned up and with my Black Oxfords instead and how I wore it outside the office. Coincidentally I wore my Olive Utility Jacket I paired it with this same Scarf.
