many of you often wonder where to find inspiration. and i have to tell you that inspiration is found everywhere. take today’s ootd for example. i didn’t reinvent the wheel for my color combo. i only had to look a favorite pair of shoes for direction. mint, check. coral, check. i could have thrown in cobalt blue, but i decided a mint crew neck sweater and coral 3/4 jacket were good enough to go. i pinned a favorite brooch onto my jacket for a little fun, and grabbed a classic handbag that goes with everything to finish off this casual chic outfit. remember, for style inspiration sometimes all it takes is a closer look at your shoes.

I’ve probably been called worse…ha ha! I’m usually good about giving up a pair when I buy a new pair…and you? How many do you have?
Great shoes! Mint & coral are great together!
I’m slowly more open to color combos I would have never entertained just a few years ago… And I love that about getting older! 🙂
