Hah, Rachy, isn't that serendipity :).
Unfrumped, it takes conscious effort from me to dress in lighter colors in winter and tonal mini capsules give me a great way to do it.
Nemosmom, I have a lot of burgundy and navy too, and I still like it... just turns out I need a little more color variation. Cognac mixes in wonderfully with those colors, but I've also been really liking your color journey. Your new favorite colors just seem so great for your life and coloring.
Minaminu, good idea. We have a heatwave coming up next week too, possibly the last of the year, but my mind is on fall dressing. I'm not inspired to shop for summer when the season is ending. Maybe taking a break is thebetter idea ;p.
Slimcat, I agree those would work together really well! I'm thinking of blue denim, black and dark grey too.
Jenn, if the strategy works, you go with it ;). If I'm honest my shopping this early is more retail therapy than practicality. But I also don't want to miss out on a great piece that's been on my shopping list for over half a year. Still thinking on the cardigans.
Angie, I've definitely been inspired by Inge's colors from your shopping trip last year.
La Ped, though your colors are much warmer than mine I do like your softer palette with the vintage feel.
Carla, I wouldn't have thought of Roxanna but her journey may well have subconsciously influenced me!
Shevia, I can imagine. Here the indoor temps will stabilize at around 21 degrees C come October, which means warm toppers become a constant again for me sitting at my desk all day.
Sal, thank you so much! It's all learnt, mostly through here...
Joy, sounds interesting. Looking forward to more WIW's!
