Blue+Yellow= Cute

Love a good color block! I have had both of these pieces for many years and love pairing them to create one of my favorite color combos. These fab shoes were a new purchase this Spring, and the shades of yellow go so perfectly together. There is something so fresh and bright about a clean, vibrant color block. We are taught to respond to primary colors since preschool, and I find that that psychological imprint reveals itself still today. This look takes me back to fun finger painting days in nursery school where mixing our primaries was the first order of business. Blue and yellow make green was one of the first things I recall learning. A crisp yellow shirt or shoe is a pop of sunshine. Paired with blue it’s an evocation of the sun in the sky. I love this outfit because it mixes bold colors with conservative silhouettes while the heels and skirt length highlight a nice stretch of leg to break it up. I maintain that conservative clothes don’t need to be bland and unexciting. It’s all about how we style and highlight them. The very few accessories here are yellow gold to coordinate. Extra points for matching accurately with my planter.
Have some old school fun with your color combos and bask in your fashion creations. All of this means nothing if we aren’t learning to enjoy ourselves.
