I can't count the number of people who told me yesterday, "You're so bright and colorful!" Little did they know that this was the toned-down version of the outfit I originally planned to wear. The first pair of pants I put on were electric cobalt blue jeans, and since the combined effect of those pants and this blazer nearly blinded me in the dim light of my bedroom, I decided it was best not to unleash the combo on the rest of the world. It was actually for the best in more ways than one because it gave me a chance to wear these bright blue pumps instead. Even though I tend to air on the side of the brighter the better, this was a pretty good compromise. And unlike most of my morning compromises — usually between me and the snooze button on my alarm — this one was successful.
