Colors!

Hello, everyone!  Hope you all had a great weekend.  Over here in Dubai, last weekend was blessed with the best weather and we couldn't ask for more!

Not so long ago, I was almost a complete stranger to colors.  My wardrobe mostly consisted of the usual black, white, grey and once in a while blue.  Don't get me wrong, I have always loved colors but hardly wear them, instead I had colorful gadgets - pink laptop, purple phone cover, pink iPod, camera..

But thanks to blogging, I am now a 'convert'!  I am not afraid to wear colors anymore!  Well, I can't say I ditched my usual grey, black and white totally but I started incorporating colors in my everyday outfit :)

This is the most colorful outfit I have ever put together and you know what? I actually like it!  p.s. Excuse the crumpled jacket, I ditched it in the back-seat while driving *blush*

  2. It's amazing how blogging changes you! For me I'm finding that I'm spending less on seasonal items I only wear once or twice. I love your colour pairings. It must be amazing living in Dubai. How long have you been there for?

    1. Hi, J! We've been here for almost 9 years now. Dubai is great from Nov to April but then the rest of the year, way too hot for me!

  4. Your comment just MADE my day! Thank you! This look is amazing, I am overly cautious when in comes to colour in my wardrobe as you may or may not have noticed. Neutrals anyone? I want, your, top, shoes, clutch, ALL. It looks like you had a great trip too! Jealous!

  5. I love this colourful look so much! I've always loved colour but until recently I was shy about wearing more than two at the same time. Now I really enjoy outfits like that one that you're wearing...in some cases more is more;)

  10. We have the same experience- prior to blogging- only black, grey & white. Now, I feel almost funny when I'm wearing black!
