Yesterday I made a bold move. Usually, when picking out an outfit I will stick to neutrals with maybe one pop of color in the outfit, but yesterday I wore more than one non-neutral color, I wore 3. Mint green, turquoise, and copper. The color combination made me think of the song Colors of the Wind from the movie Pocahontas. . . Anyways, here is the outfit:

This sudden burst of color was inspired by one of my friend's suggestions that I incorporate more color into my wardrobe (thanks Jasmine!) The result of this change? Well, in addition to feeling bright and cheery on a Wednesday, I received compliments from several of my students and friends at school. Also, when I went to the mall to pick up a few things for my mom I received a few compliments from employees at a few stores!
Just for fun, here are a few more photos of my colorful outfit:

Thank you for your advice Jasmine!
