[not so] mellow yellow




Blouse: BCBGMaxazria (similar style here); Skirt: BCBGMaxazria (similar style here); Shoes: Christian Louboutin; Bag: London Fog; Sunglasses: Karen Walker; Jewelry: Michael Kors watch, assorted gifted bangles

Sometimes the only way to beat the Monday back to work blues (or in this case Tuesday back to work blues!) is to wear the most saturated, juiciest colors you own. All at once. Together. Like your sartorial caffeine for the day.  

Who's with me? Anyone? :)

    I love how bold you are in your outfit choices. First the all-floral pant-suit and now canary yellow! You go girl!

    Wow! I imagine that going to work dressed like this would really help cure the blues. You look gorgeous and that grey bag is the perfect accompaniment to your sunny outfit! I love the perfectly matched separates turned into a dress and can't wait to see you style each of these pieces separately too!

    Have a great day!

    So with you! Although I'm not sure I'm brave enough to dare lemon yellow in the dead of winter here in Utah... I went for red and leopard print! I love how certain colors, patterns, combos, etc can infuse an otherwise blah day with a bit of energy and vitality. Knowing you look awesome (which you most certainly do here!) can make you feel powerful and gives you the oomph you need to take control of the day.

    I am in complete agreement! I just posted my outfit for today and I have also fallen madly in love with neon yellow to add a jolt of energy in my day! I love that you embraced it with the entire outfit - I'm definitely lusting for both pieces.
