Red - Yes, You CAN Wear it to Work!

So, as I begin blogging again, I thought I would be easy on myself, and work on a different color and how to "werk" it and look beautiful at work.

I previously talked about the Little Black Dress, and realized that so many people stick with their basic color scheme, and what they think looks best on them. I am not excluded. For years, I refused to buy anything red, because I was scared I would look like a hussy. But, I realize, red is a color that can be vibrant, youthful, and can really make a girl stand out in a boring crowd.

In my ease into a bold red, I thought I would purchase a red shoe (who doesn't love a red shoe?). I figured, how hard can it be to wear red? So, I purchased the cutest red shoes:

I think I am in love with red now. Happy Planning!
