Gray and Gray.

I told a little white lie this morning.  I told you I was going to pair my new shirt with a black pencil skirt,  but as you can see, I changed my mind and put it with my Gray one instead.  I love the way my shirt turned out.   I also love simple outfits that are all one tone because one color makes you  look taller.   I really have to be careful because I am  short wasted and I tend to look chopped in half if I wear to much of a contrasting  color on the top, but, if I wear all one color, that usually fixes it for me. I was even daring and put on red lipstick this morning, to see how it would photograph. I have really never found a red that looks good on me, I usually  just grab the Clear Gloss and go. 

Any suggestions on a good Red lipstick that goes with Olive Skin tone?


Have a Wonderful Afternoon Everyone!

    ow owwwww! the two greys work great. Though who would ever doubt you? you could probably wear something super weird and make it the next trend. fact

    Hi! Love your blog, thanks for finding mine! What a great Restyle, so chic! I'm originally from FL (Melbourne) so seeing your beautiful living room lit up with the strong Florida sun makes me a little homesick!
