I totally love red and pink together! Look at me...I already have a Valentine's Day outfit picked out...I'm so on top of it. =) You could also claim it looks super Candyland-ish...that's ok, I'm a fan. I love these leopard print flats I grabbed at Forever 21 last year but know I'll need to replace them eventually with some new ones. When you buy shoes from Forever 21 you can't really expect them to last longer than a season or two, really. I kind of hope they last a lot longer as I love them! They were my first printed shoe I ever bought...kind of a leap for me at the time. Also a leap was this necklace I bought (I thought it was SOOO different and not me at the time--haha) to wear to my husband's dental school graduation 3 1/2 year ago. I was always pretty conservative about wearing simple jewelry and when the sales associate suggested this necklace with the dress I was going to wear I just kind of shrugged. She basically had to talk me into it. It's so funny because by my standards now I think this is really a pretty simple necklace! Back then however, a double strand was apparently really taking a step outside the box (chuckle). My how things have changed! I mean, I'm still not super out there with my clothes, but a double-stranded necklace is nothing to be wary of, my goodness! I'm glad that I've become more willing to try new things...it totally changes how you dress.

We are staying home from church today since my youngest is a little under the weather, so no outfit to share with you from today. It's 1pm and I'm still sitting here in my pajamas! Lazy day. Have a good one!
Put me in the "love it" category - the pink and red look adorable together! I'm still trying to break out of my simple jewelry box, I love statement pieces, but I feel like I don't carry them off the way others do!
ReplyDeleteVery fun favorites survey - I'll play along sometime this week :)
Lovin the pink and red together. It works so well. I'd like to do the survey as well and will get to it this week. Really creative idea!!
ReplyDeleteRed and pink can totally go together :) I think one of the oldest clothing items that I own is this red and pink sweater from Express from years ago...I just can't seem to part with it!!
ReplyDeleteYou look really cute :)
ReplyDeleteI like the red and pink contrast too. I don't remember ever pairing them together though. I know I've definitely done pink and orange :). The survey looks like fun, I have to come back and answer it! Hope your youngest feels better :)
By the way thanks for answering my other question!
I love pink & red together. Very pretty.
ReplyDeleteThe pink and red look so good together! I never pair those colors either, I wonder why not? I will need to do so in the future!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite colors for fall are also purple and golden/mustard colors... they're so perfect. I really like a deep orange this year too.
As for accessories, no one tops Forever 21! :)
I really like the red and pink together! I have never gotten any tights from AE good to know! I will try and do this later this week!
ReplyDeleteLove the combo of red and pink. I chuckled over your story about the double stranded necklace... I too used to be much more conservative in my jewelry choices. It's a very pretty piece!
