Color Theory Thoughts
I could never figure out why, growing up, that pink and red were such a no-no. Pink is red tinted; if you were a painter, you would be adding white to red. So what was the big deal?
I think this so-called offbeat color combo gives this long skirt some funk. And I think long skirts need funk--otherwise it can be a voyage into old-lady-land. This skirt is gorgeous though. The wool fabric drapes well and is of high quality. And yes, that's another body suit underneath--hey, it is a great layering piece!

I like the color combo. It is very striking.
ReplyDeleteAlso like the photo manipulation you did. Very cool.
You look great and I love pink and red together...especially the shades that you have chosen. You really shine in these photos. Dawn Suitcase Vignettes xo
ReplyDeleteI always wondered whether red and pink go together, obviously they do!

Voyage to 'old lady land' cracked me up, especially because when I saw it I thought about how much I liked the skirt! And, I love red and pint together, too! Hello, Valentine's Day!
ReplyDeleteThese are great colors for you, Paula and, of course, they go together...rather nicely!! You look great!
ReplyDeleteI think this is such a fabulous combination! Pink and orange is a combination that I saw recently an dreally worked too! You look GORGEOUS!!! Can't wait to see you! Hugs! ~Serene
ReplyDeleteSold on the color combo! I'm just thinking out loud here....Looks like you have on layers. Oh, guess what?
ReplyDeleteThis weeks trending link is all about layers! You little pixie you better just sprinkle on some fairy dust and pop right on over.
Wanted to tell you that my work has been wacky and I haven't had time to play around with photoshop. One day I'll get serious and focus!
It's true--why were we taught this about red and pink or pink and orange (another one I was taught). I like the way this brightens up the conservative color of the skirt and the length. Teach me more about color theory please!
ReplyDeleteI really like the pink and red on you! I remember those taboos too, and can't figure out why they ever took such hold.
ReplyDeleteYou look wonderful - so vibrant in these colors, Paula! I love your combo of pink and red.
ReplyDeleteYou glow in this color combo and I am fond of long skirts, so loving the outfit. Looks like you're having fun with your new camera.
ReplyDeletePersonally I love red and pink together. It's one of my favorite colr combinations. Pink is a good color on you. Wear it more often.
ReplyDeleteI love the red pink combination and these colors look great on you!
ReplyDeleteLove the color combo--it looks frsh yet feminine!
ReplyDeleteOh, this is such a pretty color combination on you. Another thing to add to my fashion "to do" list....mix pinks and reds.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week! :)

I can see your'e having a lot of fun with the photo manipulation. I am going to have to check some of that out. Well, you have figured out how to wear red and pink for sure. It's funny about all those no-no's we were raised with. Myself, I think I am going to have to investigate hot pink and orange.
ReplyDeleteThere used to be so many fashion rules, no red with pink, no orange or chartreuse and no white in the winter....why? Love your red and pink jacke and scarf.
