So lush, so romantic!
Oh, that light blue and that teal color are two of my favorite colors! I haven't been able to commit to a more simplified palette yet, but I do know it will include teal and grey, and I adore that lighter blue. I also love the story. You have a real knack for story-telling, Janice.
So lush and beautiful – but I miss the splashes of orange and red – maybe some (faux) coral jewelry?
I think coral would be beautiful here – if I were going to expand this for a longer trip, and thus more items to pack, a soft coral would be the next color to introduce. I have to confess that I wandered WAAAY down the long corridor of beautiful shades of teal….
Dear Janice,
This is so delicious looking!! I'm just drooling.

What a beautiful painting and wardrobe. Totally my colors (except for navy as the neutral). I especially like the beautiful teal and Aqua. I too would love to see an addition of coral and possibly peach as I would like to introduce that now in to my new wardrobe of navy, tan, teal, aqua. You put together such wonderful wardrobes. I'm now also searching for the perfect scarves. . Janice Collins, Washington, DC.
Dear Janice,
Your wardrobe sounds lovely. I am hoping to someday whittle my wardrobe down to navy, teal, aqua and grey.

Lovely story and wardrobe as always. I live the
This is so lovely. The colors, the shapes, the story. le sigh.
This palette is my favorite out of all the ones you have done recently!! Gorgeous!
This morning I had to cancel my upcoming vacation for work reasons. I am NOT a happy camper. However, I loved the story you wrote and the outfits you chose. It made me think that there might be hope of rescheduling that vacation…
Such gorgeous colours and textures. Love this story!
I tried to find out how to send you an email, but i failed, so I will just write here and hope you'll see it. I'm going to Paris for my 30th birthday, and have saved to be able to go to Hermes and buy myself a scarf. This one: http://sweden.hermes.com/la-maison-des-carres/car-twi-ciels-byzantins-vert-orange-fuchsia-70925.html has caught my eye, but it has some orange in it, a color I try to stay away from since I have a very cool skintone (blue eyes, dark hair). Do you think this scarf would feel at home in a wardrobe of navy, grey, fuschia and jade-green? I have also considered "cavaliers du Caucase" in pink or blue but I find them a little bit too monochrome in having to limit myself to only one…
Janice – you've outdone yourself. I have loved this picture for some time and the clothing you've selected fits perfectly as does the story. I may have to start shopping the links as this really speaks to me! Thank you.
oh my, this is spectacular!
Be still my heart… just throw in a coral negligee!!!

Love the painting, the vignette, the colors, the clothes….dreamy!
Very pretty! Who doesn't love a good spa??
Beautiful, soft, lovely . . . I read the regatta post, above, and not quite my style, so I scrolled back, and yes, this looks perfect!
I adore your story telling the painting as an extra plus added to your 4 x 4 ideas with my morning coffee before work. Thank you! A-M from South Africa
