Professional Thursdays: Two POP's of Purple
When: Thursday September 16, 2010
What:
White collar shirt: Conway (Panama)
Purple skirt: Saks (Panama)
Black belt: Christmas present from my parents
Purple pumps: Stevens (Panama)
Black Liz Claiborne purse: TJ Max
Purple scarf: TJ Max
Where: Went to a friend's house to hang out and say funny stories
Comments:
Since I have such pale skin, sometimes I look so drained out when I wear a black or white top. For that reason, I thought it would be a great idea to add this colorful purple scarf that pops against the white top. I really love how the scarf adds color to my face and makes me look so much healthier and un-pale (invented word, jeje).
I also decided to add another more subtle pop of purple with these wonderful purple pumps. These shoes are actually one of my all-time favorites, so I was very pleased to be wearing them today! And to finish it off, the skirt ties together both pops of purple!

Do you feel that white or black tops drain you out?
Here are all the ways in which I've worn this purple scarf:

Super cute! I love that scarf, its just perfect, and that's such a great skirt too!
ReplyDeleteWhite totally washes me out as well. I have olive undertones in my skin and whites and pastels just do nothing good for me. But a warm plum like that scarf? Oh yes. Delightful.
ReplyDeleteI always feel washed out in pure white unless I have a killer tan, which I usually don't. This outfit is so retro and ladylike and GORGEOUS, though. You totally avoided the washed out look. Well done!
ReplyDeleteyou look fabulous! <3
ReplyDeleteWow you look fabulous and glamourous in purple. That purple scarf is the life of the outfit and the skirt actually accompanies the scarf. You look wonderful in purple. jgm
ReplyDeleteLove this outfit- especially the jaunty little scarf with the pretty skirt.

I absolutely feel like white drains me out a lot, but a bright scarf or necklace is the perfect way to wear white and still brighten your face. Gorgeous!
