WIW 7/2: Blue and green and pearls

MaryK

Veteran

I know Angie said she wanted to see this skirt with all white, and I promise I'll get to it, but these pieces were what jumped out of the closet this morning!

Blue watercolor print pencil skirt: Halogen
Navy tee: Caslon
Neon green knit blazer: GAP
Ivory patent pumps: Madden Girl
Cobalt "croc" clutch: Veronica M
"Pearls": J Crew via eBay
Shades: Armani Exchange via consignment

I feel pretty good in this outfit today. What do you all think?

Ah, love that jacket so much! And with the skirt, and the whole blue-green tonal thing going on... quite punchy. The creamy pearl colors set it off just so.

I think it is lovely! I also second Rae's love for this neon jacket: if I cannot wear it at least I can enjoy it on you!

Love! You are like a modern Monet!

Very nice! I am impressed at your remixing skills. When Angie first posted the neon jacket with denim shirt outfit, and everyone bought the jackets, I thought they'd be challenging to style otherwise. However, you've proven me wrong, as you've clearly found a great way to keep working it into your wardrobe.

The pearls are the perfect touch, making the outfit feminine and classy. I like the way they go with the ivory pumps. I think you would make strangers and loved ones happy wearing this outfit.

Oooh! I've always loved blue and green -- in clothing and decorating. The fact that it's neon pumps up the modern quotient, and the pearls and pumps keep it ladylike. Definite gold medal on this one!

What an amazing skirt, MaryK, such a gorgeous pattern! I love it here with your bright green blazer and happy blue bag! And yes, please, I too am looking forward to the next incarnation with all white;-)

I am so glad these pieces jumped out of the wardrobe because every time I see blue+green I jump with excitement and can't wait to see one of my favorite color combos.
I love all of it and I just luuuurve the pearls!

I also like this outfit, MK. You really shine in blue-green colors. I'm especially fond of the skirt. It's a lovely pattern and the palette is gorgeous. Reminds me of a Monet watercolor.

You ladies are so kind! I felt really good in this all day, and the knit blazer was very comfy in my over-air-conditioned office!

Wow! That's how to do darker colours in summer! With soft neutrals and brights.
