Hey, did you guys know it’s 2014?! Just wanted to make sure. The new year is very exciting and all, but as you know, this blog takes itself very seriously, so there is no time for frivolous celebration. We have to get down to business. And talk about nudity.

No, not real nudity. I’m talking about when you see someone wearing a piece of clothing that is close to their skin tone and for a hot second you think they’re naked. Awkward. Sometimes I wonder if those people looked in the mirror before buying a cream/blush/beige/tan/brown t-shirt. But then again, sometimes those colors can be really pretty, like this sort of blushy beige sweater I’m wearing here. So I came up with a rule (and the only rules that matter are the ones I make up): a naked shirt is OK if it has some kind of pattern or texture to let even quick glancers know that you didn’t forget a key step in the getting dressed process.

I think that’s a good rule, don’t you? So next time you see someone in a naked shirt, go up to them and explain the rule, and offer to paint polka dots on them. They’ll love it, I promise.

Oh, and HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!

Sometimes I dress like a pack of highlighters. In law school (that place I go in my spare time), it’s common to use a color-coded system of highlighting when you read cases – you use a different color to highlight the key points in each part of the opinion. That way it’s easier to find what you need to know quickly if you get called on (if you’ve seen Legally Blonde, you know how important it is to be prepared).

Under the color key I use, in this outfit I’m wearing a reasoning top and holding shoes. And my jeans are the smart and sometimes sarcastic notes I write in the margin in blue pen.

My goal today was to bore as many blog readers as possible. If you’ve actually read this far, color highlight me impressed.
