the red family

Inspired by the color palette I mixed for painting the other day- we've got a sort of naphthol  red-ish color in the sweater, alizarin crimson for the tights, cadmium red on the lips (can't really see them), & ultramarine purple socks. Also, unintentionally super similar to this outfit.

So I was looking at these pictures and wondering, when in the world did I get that mole on my neck? And then I realized it was just a splotch on the lens. Genius right?

It has been a beautiful day today! Loving this almost 60 degree weather. Hope you all have gotten this warm spell too!

The weather has been great here too! Not in the 60's or anything, more like the 30's, haha, which is actually very warm for northern MN in the middle of January. :)

I love how you mix colors. Color has been something I've been trying to use more of in my outfits this year, and you always inspire me sooooooo much!
