One of my favorite color combinations. I especially like how the electric blue in the Pierre-Louis Mascia scarf makes the sweater and skirt sing. I found your site last month and have read through all the past posts. Thank you so much for all the work you've done translating your thoughts into wardrobes. Just brilliant!
I spent a few hours yesterday using the pinterest and design-seeds.com (takes a photo and translate it into a palette of colors) sites to see if I could find a pattern to which colors I am naturally drawn to http://www.pinterest.com/cdjohnston/color/ since my hair is now more grey than dark brown; my brown eyes appear more golden than I remember and my skin has a yellow rather than pink cast. I have always liked deep jewel tones in the blue, turquoise and purple range on me with chocolate brown, black & dark denim as my neutrals. My grey hair is throwing me because I can't decide if charcoal rather than black is the way to go. Anyway -the photos/palettes I liked best, not surprisingly, were mostly blue, turquoises and purples, but what did surprise me was that I now like those colors greyed down somewhat. (I used to think teal was a 'sad' color and now I don't.) And I found I am drawn to textures and shadings of a single color like in Russian Blue cats and feathers. I've never worn much green, but many of the palettes I liked had a touch of green that made the other colors more interesting. The whole process was really educational.

For various reasons I'm on a shopping fast. But the recent posts have focused on colors that I already have in my closet, inspiring me to create new pairings of old favorites!

Hmm…I'm wearing a turquoise blouse today with my usual black skirt and shoes….I never thought to try brown. I can't wait to experiment!

Ooh, that's not just 'brown and blue' that's tobacco with turquoise (like a western theme with warm mid-brown leather and lumps of tuquoise made into jewellery). I can see some 'brown and blue' combos not working, but those outfits are just lovely. I wouldn't normally wear that warm tobacco brown but I certainly could with a nice turquoise top.
