Jewel Tones - Not Just for Bling!

I've previously mentioned that before I became a Lilly Pulitzer addict, it was very rare that I ventured out of my

black,
gray,
& navy

comfort zone. & to this day, my favorite non-Lilly store for my own wardrobe is White House/Black Market.

But since discovering my beloved Lilly (& having children!), I have become more adventurous with color - most of the time.

(On my nails, at the very least!)

There wasn't a whole heck of a lot of color on the red carpet this past weekend, & I'm hoping that will change over the course of this awards season.

Because these striking jewel-toned colors...



...were fantastic looks!

For those of us that don't grace red carpets, how can we add jewel tones to our lives?







(This would add such a chic, fun pop of color to an office done in neutrals!)

& of course we can easily infuse some of this rich color into our kids' wardrobes!:

(Oh, I know Crocs aren't cool or whatever...& believe me, I can't put them on my own feet - but children & nursery school teachers looove them!)

(You won't believe the sale price on that!)
