It's a red day today.......

It has been a very busy week for this gal and her pink umbrella....There has been much lovely coffee, (thanks lovely coffee guy), some lovely sunshine and a few new purchases. I have decided that each posting will include today's outfit....since some of you seriously seem to want to know.....and mabye a photo once i get a bit more techo advanced.
So today's outfit, black pinstripe pencil skirt, red & white floral print chiffon blouse, red trench coat, latte shoes. Also red nail polish & lipstick ( Napolean Madrid ) you can see where this is going, can't you? Clearly a red day. (Although my lovely 17 yr old son did inform me that the lipstick was just "too red " clearly that was just one step too far.)
My wardrobe over the last few weeks seems to be changing, i seem to be exploring color for the first time in quiet a while.....possibly inspired by discussions of one of my fave books...The color kittens. if you don't know it its a little golden book i loved as a child. Basically it has kittens and lots of color, what more could you want??

So yesterday was a pink day, today is red.....which kind of got me thinking about why we choose the colors and clothes we do. Puppy on the radio ( my esteemed partner, see previous post ) pretty much alsways wears black, and it's not cause he's lazy, it's a choice. I really never wear pants or jeans yet i have friends who are the oppsite. What part of our minds choose these things ?
