Day 119: Dissing the Black

In every color analysis/style/clothes book I read, it was stated that black is not the color for everyone.

Some books said only certain types should wear black - anything black, even accent pieces. Other books said well placed black items would be okay - like shoes, purses, skirts, etc., but absolutely not against the face. All of the books said the "little black dress" every woman should own does not have to be black - the statement just means a cocktail/party dress that looks stunning on you & you can wear to just about any function (my dress is in navy blue).

With that said, I have several black pieces in my closet. I don't think black is really my color, but I have shoes, pants, skirts, jackets & shirts in black. I never really thought about it until today...

Maybe because of yesterday's post?

Doesn't really matter. Today I threw on  my "uniform" - jeans & a t-shirt. I have been attempting to dress up my uniform - wear more necklaces, wear cute shoes instead of tennis shoes, do some layering, etc. 

Today's outfit was a long-sleeved t-shirt. It is a modest v-neck comes in slightly at my waist & is super comfortable. This is usually a win-win for me! In fact, I wore this same t-shirt (in a different color on Monday). Monday, I felt pretty decent. Not down, not blah, but not super energized either...just a moderate happy. Yesterday, I wore a long sleeve white t-shirt (different style though - this one hugs the curves and is a high round collar). Yesterday I was full of energy, just raring to go!
Not today. Today I was blah. I felt like I was dragging all day. It was easy for me to get side tracked into doing nothing.

Yes, I was wearing the correct bras on all three days. Yes, I was wearing a necklace & cute shoes. No luck. At one point, I wished I had something bright to throw around my neck. I don't normally do scarves, but I was wanting one today.

Maybe black really isn't my color. Something for me to ponder...

Happy Walking!
