With Memorial Day Weekend finally here, so does my desire to wear red, white, and blue – which will peak on the Fourth of July! Ginger loved these colors and would often coordinate over-the-top outfits with my dad – Nantucket red pants, navy striped shirts, lobster print shorts….my choices are a bit more subtle as I prefer small accents of red, more navy and white. In above photo is an outfit I wore last weekend that really gave me the feeling that summer is around the corner……it has an upscale New England look, but was an overall bargain: the jacket is actually American Eagle (a store for teens!) and the scarf with anchors – LOVE anchors – is an inexpensive hospital gift shop purchase! Navy cotton sweater was on sale at Banana Republic, jeans were bought years ago at Calypso……

….the bracelets are a layered mix from various stores (Banana Republic, Alex and Ani)….rather than just wearing one brand/style of bracelet, mixing it up adds much more interest and your own personal flair…

Are you ready for summer??? What’s your favorite color combination?
