Que Bella – Owl You Doin’?

I’ve had this little made-up corny joke in my head all day after seeing myself in the mirror.

“Yellow. Owl You Doin’?”
“Oh, Spicy but a little Blue.”

Told you it was corny but it does sum up the outfit I wore to the office today. As soon as I knew I had to head in today I planned on wearing my No. 2 Pencil Skirt in Ultra Eyelet in Chili. (That would be the “Spicy”.) This was the first opportunity to wear it and I couldn’t decide which top to pair it with. It was either going to be the Stripe Sequin Tank with my Featherweight Cotton Cardigan in Yellow or my Lemon Liftoff Blouse (That would be the “Yellow. Owl You Doin’?”) with my Short-Sleeved V-Neck Cardigan in Navy (“a little Blue”).

At first I went with the Juliets in Poppy but they kept slipping off my feet so I switched them to my Simple 70 Louboutin’s in Navy. As you can see I went with the Lemon Liftoff Blouse and Navy Cardigan. I felt great and received soooo many compliments today in this outfit. The second pic was taken at the end of the day, when I got home, while the first was taken this morning. I had no idea my make-up really wore off that much by the end of the day. And no, your eyes are not deceiving you. My hair is different because I did stop and get a haircut at the end of the day. You’ll see it styled much better, soon.

Do you like this outfit with or without the blue?

    Cute–great pairing…love the mix of colors. 🙂

    I do the same thing, make up jokes/puns about my life. Sometimes my internal conversations are my only survival skill. LOL.

    *lol* That was funny. I love the poppy shoes with, sans cardi. And it looks good w/navy, too. It's more toned down w/the navy, but still fun.

    I adore it both ways, but think I prefer the outfit without the cardi. I think it lets the top shine and the whole look is kind of retro chic and gives you a great shape!

    Yellow and red= bright and funky, love the color combination. I am totally digging your funny jokes, I am same way, looking for words to play in my head.
