I won't bore you with a full set of photos of my MONTH of neutrals.

And to think when MaryK posted her challenge I was all excited because I knew I could even do it while travelling! Little did I know that 3 day trip would stretch into 3 plus weeks!

My outfits: jeans, navy sweater, cognac boots. Jeans, grey sweater, cognac boots. Jeans, white shirt, black jacket. Black dress, denim jacket, scarf. Black dress worn as jumper, other scarf. Jeans, navy sweater, cognac boots. Jeans, grey sweater, cognac boots.

Well...you get the picture. It was pretty darn BLAH. I didn't even have much in the way of pattern or textural interest going on. Thank heavens for my red coat. And I have never loved my turquoise workout top as much!!

But I did enjoy one outfit and it was a new variation so I'm showing it here. This is the Eileen Fisher cardi that Nancylee sent. I had fun belting it to wear with the cognac boots; it's a different look than worn open.

And then, thanks to Sona, I came home to COLOUR! Just look at this gorgeous, sparkly shawl that she sent! Amazing. I put it on right away and since then have been trying to come up with some real outfits for it. Suggestions most welcome. How would you wear a big, beautiful shawl like this?
