				<description>&#060;p&#062;I wore almost the same thing this week (cobalt skirt + simple black top) but I did wear a long, gold pendant necklace with mine. &#038;nbsp;I struggle with simplicity. &#038;nbsp;Apparently you do not! &#038;nbsp;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Wow - thanks all&#038;nbsp; :)&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I feel really good in this outfit and when I look back at outfits I feel good in the most common element is fit - I do NOT feel good in anything that doesn't fit right. I need to keep this in mind for future purchases.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Impeccable fit. &#038;nbsp;A classic pencil worn with a simple, but luxurious sweater with scrunched sleeves&#038;nbsp;-- a great way to modernize the pencil. &#038;nbsp;The shiny shoes and cuff add a bit of interest. &#038;nbsp;&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;A definite do! &#038;nbsp;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I think you look great and true to your style. &#038;nbsp;I would have added the scarf but I usually feel like I need a necklace or scarf to finish an outfit off.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I love it! While the clothing is on the &#034;basic&#034; side if worn alone, the accessories of the shoes, bag and specs really make it sing. I especially love the &#034;touch of red&#034; via the&#038;nbsp;red specs and lipstick&#038;nbsp;with the strong&#038;nbsp;cobalt blue.&#038;nbsp;Looks great on you!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Stunning Shannon. Those new red glasses are all kinds of fab too. I also like how your silver cuff reflects the colours of your outfit.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;We need a close up of you fluttering your eyelashes at the camera so we can see the mascara ;)&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I think it is perfect! It is amazing how often simple is the best.&#060;br /&#062;I am always envious of this bag, I like it so much but it was ridiculously small for me...and a perfect size for you!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I love strong and simple! &#038;nbsp;The bookending here really works, TS. &#038;nbsp;I can also envision this with a yellow bag.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;And since we're all on a constant quest for the best&#038;nbsp;mascara, I'm taking notes...

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Today's outfit is about as simple as it gets - a skirt, pullover and pumps.&#038;nbsp;&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I started the outfit with my cobalt knit pencil skirt and added my plain black pullover. I went with nude micro fishnets as a nod to spring. I also went with my pointy toe, black patent, silver buckle pumps. I've had these pumps for a couple of years now and they're my &#034;going out dressy&#034; pumps. But they are also extremely comfortable so I decided this morning that I don't need to save them for special occasions and why not wear them to work?&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I went with my cobalt/cream/black quilted handbag, silver wedding band and cobalt/silver cuff for accessories. Red specs and red lipstick finish off the outfit.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I'm also wearing an Angie pick you can't really see - the YSL Babydoll mascara. You were right Angie - it's fantastic!&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;So what do you think? Is this outfit simple in a good way or simple in a boring way? I did briefly consider adding a cobalt/black/white light weight scarf I have but felt fussy when I put it on. As always, all comments/suggestions welcome.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Pullover: Sears&#060;br /&#062;Skirt: Cleo Petite&#060;br /&#062;Shoes: Bandolino&#060;br /&#062;Handbag: Danier Leather&#060;br /&#062;Cuff: gift
&#060;/p&#062;
