Washington DC 2012, Family Vacation, part 7

Pentagon Mall, I wore my green jeans, black and white large stripe silken tank top from old navy and my mustard yellow cardigan with my mustard yellow ballet flats from Target, I was surprised by how many complements we received. In one store the manger approached us and asked if we were secret retail shoppers and when we told her we were both nurses she couldn't believe it. She said we were so put together that we looked like we worked in upper retail. Hubs was wearing dark wash slim fit jeans, suede leather lace up shoes, a plaid button up with contrasting cuffs, matching leather belt. In the Kenneth Cole store I was stopped three times in 10 minutes by three different people with praise on my "color blocking" Due to coloring mixing and refashioning is my hobby, everything I learned is from Classy Girls Wear Pearls and Building a Remixable Wardrobe 
I have added my own personal touches here and there and I have had to adjust for appropriate age and my personal figure style. I am a classic hour glass my waist is 9 inches smaller than my hips
