I got multiple complimentss on how cute and colorful I was when I wore this to the office. It’s almost as if people aren’t used to seeing bright orange and gingham blazers at a law firm (almost).

Consider this your semi-annual reminder that dressing in complimentary colors on the color wheel is a surefire way to look like an interesting, fashion-forward person. I’m sure I could find some old episodes of What Not to Wear that would prove this theory wrong, but guess what, Stacey and Clinton? Your show’s over and I’m in charge now. And I’m telling everyone to wear more colors. GO NUTS.

I’m not sure this is what Katy Perry had in mind when she wrote that peacock song, but I am happy to show you my peacock shoes, sans innuendo. 🙂 I’m also happy to point out that I shamelessly matched my purse and sunglasses to my peacock shoes. I’ve gotten way more into matching than I used to be, as long as there’s still something contrasting. And if that something contrasting happens to involve stripes, then I’m proud to wear it. (That was a peacock joke. Please tell me you laughed.)

Have a happy Sunday, everyone! If you follow me on Instagram, you can see all the fun things I’m doing on my Sunday Funday, but you have to maintain a very broad definition of “fun” because there’s probably meal prepping and working from my couch involved.
