My closet is filled with neutral basics, which is why I’m the perfect candidate for a shot of color every once in a while.  Whether it’s in the form of a florescent yellow clutch or some hot pink shoes, it’s sure to make a big impact (just skip the crimped hair and fanny pack).

    Love the shoes. Don’t agree with skipping the crimped hair–I think a little bit of crimp can work and be hot!

    Ooh neon… can’t get enough.

    I’ve been searching for that Minkoff purse forever (doesn’t seem to exist in Hong Kong). Of course, I ran into it in Japan this weekend… for 3x the normal cost :)
