That jacket is TDF. And I love the matching manicure! I think this is a great look on you. I understand the sandal issue -- I'm having similar feelings about some of my older summer footwear. Looks great on the feet, comfortable, etc, but somehow feels "over" for me, even if it's not actually dated. Maybe you and I rely heavily on our shoes to keep our summer style modern, so we tire of older shoes more quickly? Although I have held onto my flat thong-style t-strap sandals and am starting to feel them again...

I love turquoise, or any shade of blue for that matter! I'm especially liking the combo with the pants! I would have never thought of combining them that way, but it really works!!! Note to self, get more creative with color combinations!

I love turquoise too. I have heard that turquoise and coral are universally flattering colors, which is comforting. They are also happy colors. Fantastic building, but of course it's over budget. Geniuses must go over budget or they wouldn't be geniuses.

Don't think the shoes are dated. I still see lots of those for sale.
