Swimming In Green

I've always been told that navy blue looks good on me. When I noticed that I got more compliments on the days I wore navy, I decided that I would buy more navy. That is when I started taking notice of when I got compliments and started really noticing how I looked in a particular color. Before this, I would wear whatever I wanted and never really cared how it looked on me.

I know I've said it before, but cream is not a color for me. It makes me even more pale than I already am. For instance, today I was wearing a cream colored sweater at work and I got asked if I was feeling ok. Did I feel sick? What's wrong? Wow! The difference a color can make.

I have now discovered another color that creates lots of compliments. Green. I cleaned out my armoire this past weekend and I found this "dress" shoved inside. I bought it just before the end of last summer and only wore it once. I didn't care that it was a swim cover-up; I wanted to wear it yesterday. So....

First, I added a cami.

Then, I added a necklace.

It still felt like a swim cover-up, so I added a belt.

And of course a pair of wedges.

Cover-up (dress): Mossimo via Target
Cami: Ann Taylor
Shoes: Jellypop (I can't remember where I got them)
Necklace: I can't remember
Belt: I ripped it off of this dress
Earrings: Gifted (these are my favorite if you haven't noticed)

The next time I find anything this shade of green I will have to buy it. The hubs thinks it is Celtics Green (Boston's basketball team for those of you who don't know).

What's your best/favorite color?
