Have you ever woken up and wanted to dress to match the day? I’m not talking about wearing rainboots when it rains or a sun dress when it’s sunny. I mean taking a look outside at the sky, the clouds, the fog, the colors and using it as a basis for your outfit. Well as abstract as that may be, that’s what I did this morning. And today was quite a gray day.

I started with my dark gray top and my light gray cargo pants. In warmer weather I would wear this combo on it’s own, but being as it’s a little chilly I threw on this open sweater. It has both grays in it, so it was a winner. The soft colors inspired the super feminine jewelry; Arm party of faux pearls and crystals & a big clear bauble necklace. My nude pumps played to my super neutral color pallet. Finally I grabbed my Michael Kors Hamilton bag. It’s a great blue-gray that kind of matched. Looking at the pictures, I’m still questioning it with this outfit but there’s something about it that I liked. Maybe it’s because it looked just like the dark rain clouds in the sky… Wow, am I pathetic poetic today or what?
