Indulge me here. It is after all a color coordinating blog so we aren't off topic.
I have mentioned in the past my main business is a children's clothing store Tuesday's Child Boutique which has a web presence at www.TuesdaysChild.com. Of the many European brands we carry, there is a line from France for girls called Lili Gaufrette. One of their strong points is that each season almost every piece from the line can interact with the other pieces of the line.
And with that in mind, while photographing a light lavender t-shirt with some skirts (the same skirt in multiple colors) I realized visually just how versatile and universal lavender can be. Granted there are some colors that are strong (i.e. the last coral with the lavender) but the pont here is that it works, so you can take from here that lavender will comfortably fit into most every ensemble and nicely at that. (Its great with blacks and any combination of grays and works well with browns too. We have already covered that elsewhere in this blog. Here are some visuals on other colors.

More Spring Addendum

More Spring Buildup
Happy 2011 to All!
Who am I kidding, its no longer a buildup to Spring. As far as fashion is concerned, Spring is happening as we speak.
Here is a second suit from Hickey Freeman His First Line that we received for the spring and here is the buildup, from shirt to complete ensemble:
Also a His First HF Shirt: Soft Stripe almost Blue without being a solid Blue.
Added a tie that works well with the suit. HOWEVER, its close to the suit color so some may not like it and I cannot argue. For that reason I chose a bright square as you shall see.
With the suit. The suit color is a slate type gunmetal blue, not quite a navy.
Here is the square option I had. Orange and blue tones make this right and Springy as well.
And here, the square in play completing the ensemble.
Have a great day!
