I recently completed a very large writing project, so lately I've been filling my now utterly empty brain with very interesting questions. One such question was posed by Caroline a few months ago: "What colors would pair well with orange?" Although I don't have a ton of orange, I like wearing it, but I have a long list of colors I won't wear orange with. I won't wear it with black, because I think it looks to halloweeny. I won't wear it with brown, because I think it looks to drab. I won't wear it with blue, because I think it looks like I'm on a collegiate sports team.
I think green works great, though. Maybe not hunter green, because I think it looks a little huntery... but lime green has managed to escape my taboo list. And the assistant at our local pharmacy agreed, complimenting me on my bold color combo not once but twice -- once when I dropped a prescription off in the morning, and again when I picked it up in the afternoon. So green it is!
I wore this to run errands, think deep thoughts, and NOT write for the first time in months. It was awesome! I'll miss the cold, empty library soon, but I'm enjoying a few days off.
