Color Me Up

 I'm learning some valuable lessons as I continue to filter through my closet and drawers.
#1 My shopping trips do not have to happen all that often.
#2 There's more to a wardrobe than black and
#3 Wearing bold color doesn't mean you're coo coo or that you have a quirky personality. (I'm certain mine is quite bland)

In discovering those three facts I'm learning that while this blogs title has the word fashion in it, the blog is primarily about finding your own style, no matter what your age, and setting your own rules.  Your style and mine will never be the same, because everything about us is what determines our individual style. Does that make sense?

The big whammy for me was that I needed to try new things.  By that, I mean pulling things out of my closet, even if I think it won't go, and laying it out on top of something else to see if it suits me.  I may even have to try on several items before deciding on one outfit that gives me the warm and fuzzy.  

  Being worried about this color combination pushed me to try it on and until I saw someone else wearing it I still wasn't sure.  It's kinda like the "you go first" thing.  You want to see someone else do it before you put yourself out there.
