December 26, 2013 Another one of those unexpected, but really eye-catching, uses of accessories to breathe life into dark outerwear, on dark days.

Chic Sightings: Turquoise and Navy
September 5, 2013 This first outfit is what got me looking for turquoise - the pieces are all really simple, but the color combination was striking, and the proportion of the long tee shirt, the cropped cardigan, and the modestly longer shorts was both pretty and unique. Once I started to focus on looking for turquoise with navy, I saw it quite a few times!

Chic Sightings: Grey and Peach
August 21, 2013 I've left the grey garments the same as the ones that I used with shades of green last week, in order to really emphasize the degree to which these outfits shift in their mood and appearance based on the accent color used.

August 13, 2013 Not a color combination I would have thought of, but I've seen it a lot recently, and it's been beautiful! There's a LOT of grey on the streets of Chicago these days...

Chic Sightings: Red Shoes (and Belts)
August 8, 2013
One very striking dress, and one utterly simple and classic dress:
A great printed tee shirt with exquisitely well-matched shorts, and very fun zippy red moccasins. And a shirt covered with tiny red hearts, accented with red leather accessories, and white capris.
All shirts have sleeves rolled up, this time of year...
