HOW TO WEAR SHADES OF BLUE WITH YELLOW
I’ve been waiting for months to be able to say these words…”I’m getting my hair done tomorrow!” The last time that I was at the hairdresser’s, we discussed how to keep my hair from looking shabby if they shut down the salons. It turns out that the salons were all closed down a couple of days later, so I was fortunate to have been one of the last ones to get their hair done.
We decided to color my base color and not to add any darker lowlights that would show a line when they grew out. Plus, the style of my cut looks good worn short or in a longer length. So, we cut it reasonably short, and it has been growing all this time. Then, to try and combat my gray from showing, I have also been using a shampoo for gray hair occasionally. That keeps my hair from looking brassy, and it also brightens my highlights to a white/silver look. I am fortunate that most of my gray is on the sides and not the top where I part my hair. If you lift up the sides of my hair, you might get a whole different picture of how gray I have gotten. It is funny how you have sections or patches where your hair goes gray. My best friend in high school had one spot that turned gray, but she parted her hair in a way that made it look like it was a highlight, so it looked cute and modern. So, now I am faced with the question, do I cut my hair or continue to let it grow???
How cute is this top!?! I have fallen in love with this bright yellow top with the different shades of blue floral print. The print reminds me of the Ming Dynasty blue and white vases for some reason. The top has a split neckline with a small button/loop closure and a little flutter sleeve. The top hits me right at my hips, so you can wear the blouse long or tuck it in. When I ordered the top, I had in mind to wear it with white shorts, but it would also look great with jeans or navy pants/shorts/skirts. I am wearing a size medium, and it fits me great. HERE is the link to the top, which is from Loft.
Here are a new pair of hoop earrings from Kendra Scott. These are very lightweight, but they are still large enough to be a statement. They are silver, but they also come in gold and rose gold. I love the iridescent crystals that give a small amount of sparkle to the earrings. HERE is the link to the hoops. The bracelets that I have on are the Logan (with the pearl) and the Chariot (with the gray moonstone) from The Styled Collection (HERE).
These linen colored platform espadrilles are a pair that I bought last year. They are by Michael Kors, and they are the perfect neutral for summer. I love the gold zipper detail that makes the shoes look dressy and luxurious. I am wearing my usual size 9, and these fit me perfectly. HERE is the link to these shoes.
The Carla Jute espadrilles from Target look almost identical to these. I’ll link to those below.
Even though I meant to wear this top with white, I think that it looks great with these azure blue shorts from Loft. These are the 6-inch Riveria shorts like the ones that I wore in (this) post. This color is no longer available, but there are other colors that you can choose from HERE is the link to these shorts. I like the 6-inch length, but this length might be too short for some of you, so I’ll link to some longer lengths in the same color.
I just ordered in a lot of clothing from Talbots, and a box just arrived from Chico’s. So, hopefully, in the upcoming week, you should see a lot of new items hitting the blog. But, I was wondering, would you like to see some more casual outfits? Would you like to see t-shirts and jeans, leggings and long tops, or knit shorts and tanks? What about swimsuits? Would you be interested in seeing some of the ones that I’ve bought this year?

Cute outfit. I would love to wear those shoes, but I cannot wear at all… I like seeing casual outfits, or mixed, jeans and tees..
What a joy it was to see my hairdresser last Friday, I would love to see t-shirts, casual wear. I’m retired now so it’s easy dressing for me, except when we go out to dinner. Which hasn’t been for awhile.
I just bought the shorts in milk tan! They had a code and I got them for $30.69!!! Yeah
I meant to say I love the blue and yellow combination!
I love your hair! I had no idea you hadn’t been to the salon. Unfortunately, I had dark brown hair but am totally gray without my hair stylist. When the roots grow it’s quite noticeable. As far as future posts go I’d love to see some cute summer dresses.
I would love to see the new styles you’ve just purchased especially Chico’s and Talbots. Swimsuits not so much.
You are always so put together. I wish my hairdresser was open??♀️
I think it’s great. I would probably wear it with white but because I wouldn’t think to wear it with navy, I’m slow like that.? I want to see jeans and cool tops. Love these shoes but I wish they had a little bit lower heel.
We were definitely reading the same page, I have on navy sleeveless blouse with lemon print in navy background(skirt from Talbots, a year ago) and a yellow cardi from Kohl’s. I love this outfit, it always puts me in a good mood which I needed for a mammo appt today!
You are so cute! Your hair looks good at this length. I’ve let mine grow and I like it longer.
