Eclectic Joy

WIW: CC for today and Sunday

February 11, 2019

Since I don’t think I’ll be able to participate, I decided to pull from my Cold Spring capsule for a few days at least.
Sunday, cream/grey tweedy sweater dress. I wore OTK light taupe suede boots and carried a taupe bag. My topper was a white puffer. This worn to see Oscar Animated Shorts and dinner at a lovely tea house.
Today I went all out blush with an oversized blush chunky sweater, blush jeans, tan suede loafers and light tan socks as it is snowy and cold. Do these colors work together? Does the sweater overwhelm?
Last photos are an outfit last week, an early stab at the no dark neutrals. Light greys and white. Is the hat silly?
I welcome your suggestions and comments.

    Yes they definitely work! They remind me of a bowl of orange and raspberry sherbet :)

    My word, how KILLER adorable are you in #3. I could eat you up.

    I love #3 - great neutrals!

  • Sal replied 5 years ago

    I think they all work Joy!  You have a variety of textures that make them all look rich sumptuous and interesting.

    Thank you, Suntiger, Angie and Texstyle, I wear the colors in the third outfit quite a bit. They used to go perfectly with my hair. Now the hair is whiter. Suntiger, you made me hungry for a bowl of sherbet or gelato.

    Thank you, Sal. I just saw your post. I do like mixing textures.

    Light neutrals have been invented just for you, Joy. You look beautiful in this colour palette. I especially love your sweater dress, it suits you so well. The hat is very nice, nothing silly about it. The blush is also great. You have nailed the challenge.

    Thank you, Katerina, you are very kind.

    #3 is perfect, and the hat completes the outfit (NOT silly). The length of your pants is perfect - #PPLdreams!

    You wear pale neutrals and colors so well. Love the blush sweater especially.

    Love the sweater dress and the hat!

  • Jaime replied 5 years ago

    You look fab - love the hat!

  • Joy replied 5 years ago

    I am thrilled that the hat is getting approval. I have tried for years to find a style that looked ok and was warm.

    Gorgeous! Soft colours and textures pulled together very stylishly. The dress is my favourite!

  • nemosmom replied 5 years ago

    Oh my gosh - you look amazing in all of these! You wear tonal outfits with such ease. The sweaterdress looks cozy, and I love how the texture of your ostrich bag plays well with texture of your boots and pattern in your scarf. Brilliantly done!

    Joy, I love your sweater dress, so pretty.

  • Joy replied 5 years ago

    The sweater dress is really cozy and Pete t for a cold winter day with my OTK boots it was a find on this site, I think in one of Angie's round ups. I will try to add the find.
    Thank you , Jane and Opaline.
    Nemosmon, I appreciate how you noticed the details.
