It's so easy to fall back on black and white (as evidenced in my outfits the past couple of weeks ... or all time), but sometimes those brightly colored garments are too fun to pass up. I love this emerald hue, but don't own a ton of it, so when I pull it out, it feels almost like a special occasion. There's something about bold shades that gives a little boost of confidence, make me more alert, and generally lead to a good day. 

So sport a lively color and have a great one!
