Orange You Glad You Have a Friend Like Ally?

Well, I am.  Because Ally, who blogs over at Shybiker, is the one who sent me this beautiful orange scarf:

As you can see, it's the perfect shade of orange.  It's not pumpkin orange, which is fine in a pinch, no, it's a lovely, luminescent coral orange.  And it's the perfect orange to pair with this skirt:

This vintage skirt remains one of my all-time favorite thrift store finds.  I love the delightful stretchy, possibly double-knit fabrication.  I love the crazy print.  And I love that the colors include the same lovely orange as the scarf Ally gave me:

And that's just one of the many reasons I'm glad to have a friend like Ally.  Thanks, Ally!


Happy Monday, All!

Oh, I almost forgot.  I am linking up to Visible Monday today over at Not Dead Yet Style.  You should too!

Deepest, Darkest Jungle

I love the black background on this tropical print jacket.  It reminds me of the deepest, darkest jungle:

And it’s more “appropriate” for winter than a brighter tropical print might be. 

I also love the Karina dress (Marisa, c/o Karina Dresses) that I paired it with.  This dress has been a closet workhorse since I received it a couple of years ago.  It’s held its shape beautifully and is so easy to layer so it can be worn year round.  In addition to the jacket (vintage, gifted) and the dress, I also wore tights (Spanx via Nordstrom) and boots (Gap).  I also added coral statement necklace (via Piperlime) to complement the colors on the jacket. 

Happy Thursday, All!
