Fashion Friday- Bold Color Tank Top and Cardigan Sweater

Fashion Friday - Cardigan sweater, Bold colors- The Style Sisters
Last week I shared with you how much I love cardigan sweaters and this week I am wearing one once again LOL maybe I need to change things up a little…Nahh 😉
Fashion Friday - Cardigan sweater, Bold colors- The Style Sisters
I am wearing this bright colored pattern of fuscia and orange tank top from Banana outlet, pencil skirt from Old Navy and the turquoise sweater from Ann Taylor Loft outlet. 
I can’t remember where I got the necklace from..It might have been from Walmart!
The tank top has some pleats up at the top that gives it a little flair.  
The tank top does hang a little long on my short waist so I have used a skinny black belt to create a soft ruffle at the bottom of the top over the skirt.

My oldest daughters dog has come to live with us for awhile…Love her to pieces but sheesh she sheds like nobody’s business!! It’s a good thing you cant see the black skirt close up because I am sure I covered with her fur!
I think it is interesting to note that even though the tank top does not have the turquoise blue color in the pattern it still works..why? Well ..I don’t know if I am right… but this is what I think….
1. All the colors are within the same bold color pallet…You know what I mean?…. I wouldn’t put a pastel sweater with this combo or a muted color unless maybe it was grey. 
2. These  Pink and Orange are warm colors and the Blue is a cool color they are opposites on the color wheel and therefore….they flow together.

Ok I am going to change things up a bit and wear something else besides a cardigan to show you next week. 🙂

    Very cute outfit. The bold colors do work well together, and I like the way you made the little ruffle with the skinny belt. I love cardigans, too, and my post today included one as well! Would love to have you drop by to check it out. My Fab Friday Fashion posts are specifically appropriate for ladies over 50, but because I like funky, cool things, they work for anyone. Have a great weekend!

    […] This always adds length and even height. Cardigan sweaters create length for the torso. Here is another outfit that I put together that does the same thing. […]

Zurich was amazing! I think I could live there…. Zurich was amazing! I think I could live there…. At least during spring 😉 

The weather was so nice! We walked, biked and took a little boat ride.
Happy heavenly Mother’s Day to my mom! How we al Happy heavenly Mother’s Day to my mom! How we all loved her! I miss her funny sense of humor, her fierce love of others, her cooking and desires to always please everyone. Mom had strength beyond my comprehension she was always gardening… moving heavy pots, digging in hard soil and creating an oasis everywhere she lived. Her love of all things French was something to admired. Everyone who ever walked into her home could immediately feel loved and cared for. Mom worked tirelessly in her chocolate company right up until just a few months before she died. Her sacrifices for us were uncountable. I love my mom and all she was and did and especially her faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. Here’s to all the moms past present and future and to all the sacrifices, teachings and loving us even when we drive them crazy. 

Loving and missing my mom! ❤️

My travel outfit tip- wear your denim jacket and raincoat to leave room in luggage. Loving this lightweight raincoat that is lined. It also fits great in my backpack.

White sneakers with leopard detail and super comfy and go with everything!
