I was delighted to come home after a long day at work and find a package from the one and only MaryK! Inside was an awesome bright red-orange button-up shirt and 2 pairs of fancy nude microfishnets. I was so excited I took photos right away without styling or collaging :D One step closer to acquiring Mary's fab wardrobe, mwahahahah! *erhm*
Thank you so much, Mary!!

Fantastic, I have a bright scarlet top not unlike that one. I have been wearing it to work, I think I might try it with my white jeans for the weekends.
Thanks for the inspiration : )

That looks great on you. And it looks "styled" to me - cute outfit. I also love your shoes.

Gorgeous! I love the gathering over the bust, and your lovely canteloupe nail polish will work brilliantly with this!

Squee!!
SO FAB ON YOU!!! The color, the shape, the fit! WOW!!!
It just never gets old to see one's not-quite-right wardrobe items looking so darned fantastic in their new homes, does it?

The blouse looks terrific on you, Aida. And enjoy your new nude fishnets.

Sooo cute on you! I'm always happy to see one person's wardrobe miss become a hit on another!

Thanks for the lovely comments ladies, glad you all like the top as much as I do! I'd never have even tried on this shirt if I saw it at the store because of the bust detail (shows you what I know!) so that's a pleasant surprise for me. The color is like a BRIGHT red-orange rather than the tomato red I said (fixed that), I love it :D I didn't even realize that it looks styled the way I posted it, just swapped tops with what I had on yesterday. *notes to self that bright red-orange and white work well together....*
EDIT: The sandals are these here from Target. They're quite comfortable!

wow, aida, that color looks BIZANG! on you! so HAWT!
which season are you again? I think we're similar, but i don't think I can wear that color... hmm...
Aida replied 12 years ago
Thanks Lisa and Laurel!
Laurel, I'm somewhere between Deep Autumn and Deep Winter; at the brunch I asked Angie's opinion on my coloring and she said warmer skin tones but that I wear cool colors well (I think hehe). I seem to be able to wear colors from both palettes, except those on the extremes: the iciest winter non-neutral colors and the earthiest autumn non-neutral colors don't really work for me. I think you're a Deep Winter? If so, this particular shade may be too warm but if you found one that was more rust colored that might work.
