The Complimentary Cats

Swatting away bugs!
Peach cat print dress, Francesca's Collections. Lacy cardigan, American Eagle. Leather flats, Land's End. Blue cluster necklace, Target. Leather front flap purse, thrifted. Wayfarer sunglasses, Ray-Ban. Pictures by Reid!

     One of my favorite ways to put a new twist on an old favorite is by pairing it with something in the opposite color family. My absolute favorite complimentary color set is that of blue and orange. Most colors in both families look great together from teal and coral to burnt orange and navy, I'm always satisfied when those colors mingle in my outfits. 
     Lately, I have been finding myself a wee bit jaded of taking my own outfit pictures. I don't know if it is because I am nearing the end of the school year and lazy college kid syndrome is finally affecting the way I dress or if I am just plain uninspired. The last thing I want to do is stop blogging: that is not what I am hinting at! But I plan on definitely shaking things up a little bit content wise so as not to seem like I am losing fire for what I do. Having a fashion blogging "problem" seems so lame when put into the larger context of the world, but this is something I absolutely love and feel strongly about.
     Regardless, I am almost all the way moved out of my dorm for the summer (scary!) and am going to have a wonderful weekend in the mountains. I would love to post my pictures from the cabin and Dollywood; however, I can make no promises about the wifi situation! If there isn't any internet source (probably what I need for relaxation, anyways), I'll pepper my pictures throughout next week.

I just finished taking a hiatus from daily outfit blogging because of school and it's pretty much rekindled my love for it (I mean, it's been one day so far but still...) Anyhow, I think it's good to shake things up. I really do love your daily outfits though. They inspire me!
