On days that are extra gloomy I find myself wearing the brightest things in my closet. Something about dressing opposite from the weather helps me deal with it better I guess. Something I rarely do though? Stack the same color on top of each other. This yellow coat was such a great thrift find (a whopping $4), but sometimes I have a hard time pairing it with things. I'm not one that exercises monochromatic looks, but I didn't think this was too bad.

That coat is AWESOME! I think you could wear it with a lot of things....outerwear doesn't have to match clothes does it? What a great thrift find!

I am soooo in love with your coat! I should go thrifting more often, some amazing treasures are hidden, one just need to dig them up! Bravo :)
Let me just say, "I want that coat!" It is simply amazing! Love the elbow pads on the cardi too.
I want your jacket so badly. I mean seriously $4? I probably would pay $50 for it.

Congrats on everything!
This look great and the fact that coat was $4.00 makes it even more wonderful.

not too bad? that coat is amazing!! such a fun vintage look & the such a great color on you!! (not to mention I always love a great thrift find like that). I hadn't thought of it before either but I guess I don't usually go for monochrome either.. maybe when I try your recipe I"ll try this- thanks so much for the details on that btw, so sweet of you!

Amazing coat! I love monochromatic looks - I just need more yellow in my wardrobe :)
Love the bright yellow! I do the same when it's gloomy outside (or I'm feeling down)!
I wear monochromatic but never thought about yellow on yellow! That's so fun!
Have a great weekend!
xo, sam
P.S. Really digging the new hairdo!
Love the color! You always look so cute!
I actually really love the monochromatic thing. I used to do it a lot more than I have lately. However, I think it is funny we both had the same reaction to gloomy weather this past week: wear bright colors. I wore the brightest yellows in my closet this past Friday just in an attempt to cope. And I can't believe you got that coat for $4. Impressive!
I'm loving this outfit. Grey and yellow. Perfect combo. The boots are cute too.
You are so pretty and I just saw some photos from the lara miller event on stilletos and diaper bags blog, you looked gorgeous! I miss youuu!
