Wardrobe: navy, gray, pastels, and lots of outfits!

Someone commented that when they looked at the camel and navy wardrobe here, they just imagined that the camel garments were gray… From your lips to my ears: here’s the same wardrobe, generally, but more casual, and substituting gray for camel.  I think my next adventure might be to switch out the accent colors, eh?

    This reminds me of the time I deplaned in Munich after a month in India. I was suddenly back in the World of Navy and Grey. I like this sober combination and pink is a welcome note after all that propriety

    This shows that gray is definitely more my style–I could see myself in this collection so easily (minus the pink). Thanks!

    Such fun watching all these possibilities unscroll! Thanks! The pinks and the lighter blues really sing in this context. Love 'em!

    Happy to be a stimulus to your creative thinking! I love this one – fits in with my part-time professional, part-time SAHM life. Thank you.

    Gorgeous! I think my tweak would be raspberry instead of pale pink. This slightly more casual collection would be perfect for work in Portland (just add a good raincoat….).
