the blue and the black
today’s post is short and sweet. and for those of you receiving the post by email, i understand there has been a glitch the past two days after the website crashed. the problems are being sorted out one-by-one. keep your fingers crossed this post goes out without a hitch. if not, it’s back to the drawing board. but back to our regularly scheduled program. blue and black are a great color combo and perfect for spring. a statement necklace is always a good idea when polishing off a nine-to-five look. today, you can clearly see this necklace that is from the O, Oprah Magazine limited-edition collection for Talbots. and the unexpected detail? a pair of brightly colored pumps! of course, black would have been the safe bet. but why not let your accessories give your outfit the oomph it needs to amp it up? the devil is in the details so be on the lookout for fun shoes and handbags.

Great outfit! That is one of my favorite shades of blue…looks pretty on you… Didn’t realize that you had moved until I was catching up on posts. Are you all settled in? My visit to Texas was fun…wish the kids were closer. xoxo

Love the shoes and that necklace. Do your sons live near by or will you move again when you have grandchildren. I so admire your ability to pack up and move. Mine? None.
one never knows with the djalali family!
