primps and hose

So, not a good picture, but last weekend this girl had to primp it up and chose to wear my favorite hose for a friend's wedding. the picture is husband flicking a leaf off said double fishnet hose, but i focus on the color palette and ignore the rest. a j.crew olive green taffeta with a serving of etsy knitted eggplant at shoulders and two sueded hive and honey eggplant feet. creamy pearls neutralized and accessorized.

JAILBREAK!

hi friends, here's a fun topic for us to discuss: preconceived notions of certain color patterns and combinations. whenever i wear stripes, like today, i don't get, "grace, how trend-appropriate of you!" from my husband. instead, i get, "JAILBREAK!" ruffles are pirate, and there's some sort of "yarrr" comment. yellow and black is a bumblebee. orange and black is halloween, etc. does this happen to you?

that aside, today's outfit features gray (which i'm currently obsessed with) white, and a pop of red.

happy tuesday!
