Color Inspiration 16

Last week we were lucky to have a bit of a summer weather back!!! I want to be bright again, I took out clothes I was going to hide till spring. So my colorful craziness was back last week!  

You may see this Chaps flannel shirt from Kohls in some spring pictures, but... remember: I never repeat exactly same look twice! Jeans from Ann Tayor are the same, but different Coach shoes, Christopher Kon purse and Chico's tank underneath. (As you see I have not added all these photos to my virtual wardrobe, just because I'm trying to shot as much as I can while it's warm and sunny and work on organizing everything during long dark winter night later. Promise-promise!)

White-Blue-Navy

Light blue, dark blue and white. You can never go wrong with this combination! It's simple, it's classic, it always looks good! When I get tired of mixing colors like crazy I do something like this. It reminds me of Gzhel - traditional Russian art of porcelain painting. It reminds me blue and white themes in some designers' collections for this summer.  Here is my version of it.

Polka Dot again

I love my polka dot dress from Ann Taylor.  I'm in love since I first saw it on-line! It's classic, it will be trendy forever and I believe you can make tons of cute outfits with it. Today I decided to go bright and wild and combine spring-grass-green with fuchsia. Why not? Usually if you can find this combination of colors in nature it will look good in your interior or outfit.  I was thinking spring flower field and dark lake water.

I can not tell for sure what inspired me this week.... Weather changed my plans every morning. I'm not complaining and to be honest I like 60F in the morning much better than 90F. But I planned to wear my summer outfits a bit longer. And some are still in the mail! OMG! So, here what I could do with my clothes, my mood and my weather this week!

Iowa weather / Непредсказуемая погода

We were going to an outdoor concert in nice botanical garden tonight, but spent half an hour in our basement due to severe weather! Tornado watch, hail, thunderstorm, heavy rains and all other awesome surprises from Iowa weather.

Собирались на концерт в ботаническом саду, но провели вечер в подвале собственного дома... Опасность торнадо, град, ливень, гроза и прочие прелести погоды.
