Color Coordi-Nation

While discussing style and trends on the way to lunch with my fabulous and trendsetting mentor Meredith today, we discovered that America is all about some color coordination, style, fashions, etc. According to American folk, if you don't match aka color coordinate then you're not stylish. We don't believe such nonsense. However, I try to color coordinate whenever I see fit.


If you don't know me, I am known (especially by my students of 4th and 6th grade) for my scarves, watches, and belts (that I wear on the outside of my shirt). This is just a simple way to color coordinate with pretty much anything. A scarf always dresses up the occasion, which in my profession is necessary when needed to look professional when readiness time is scarce in the A.M.


On my search for stylish behaviors, I found some samples of what I would totally wear:

An American Eagle Scarf, cutest ever seen

Rubberish type watch, exclusively at Rue 21

I would totally wear this belt on the outside of a shirt to give it a more Western effect, American Eagle.

Now, is this the style of America today you may ask? Probably not. However, this doesn't matter to me, because this is MY style.


I have also noticed on my search for fashion that Maurices color coordinates everything. They also put cute outfits together simply for you to say, "That is the cutest outfit like ever"....so you try it on...and you end up buying it. Happens to me a lot!!! This store has also helped me understand America's trends and fashion style of today. However, I do not agree with some of the ugliness that America thinks is "cute", "hot", or "whatever else they want to call it". It is also extremely rare that I find a skirt/dress that is decent to wear to school or church in stores today, but Maurices has that sort of appropriateness I am seeking.


The color that seems to be "IN" this year as well as last year is an orangish color. I recently bought the shirt shown because of it's seemingly cute behavior it portrays and professionality. Therefore, I can wear it to school. 

Color=Awesomeness

The shirt above with these pants will be color coordination!!

As you can see on my search for fashion knowledgeability, I have picked up a few tips from Maurices. This is the best place to go for professionality.


This Color Coordi-NATION will simply have to wait for me to catch up!


Quote of the Day:

"The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It’s the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows & the beauty of a woman only grows with passing years."
