And this is as brave as I get, CocoLion. There's crocheting on the top, a subtle plaid in the jacket, a pattern on my vintage earrings, and the scarf manages to combine each and every colour in the outfit, right down to the single-thread pale blue lines running through the plaid. And it puts some pale blue colour near my face, which suits me better than the mustardy colour of the top.
Inspiration to combine mustard and grey provided by our lovely Sveta, although my mustard is nowhere near as nice as hers.
The fingerprinting was for a routine criminal record check, in case anyone is wondering. All digital these days - no ink. Yay!
As always, comments and suggestions are always welcome. In the case of this outfit, I was trying to get maximum mileage out of some less-than-ideal elements. In my permanent wear-the-front-of-the-closet challenge, the top, the pants, and the jacket were all at the front, and Sveta's wonderful combination of similar colours inspired me to try combining them myself.
