Orange Blossom Special
T-shirt: LOFT
Skirt: Urban Outfitters via consignment shop
Shoes and belt: Target
Necklace: Inherited from Cary's grandmother
Earrings: Gift from student
I told you the musical interludes were here to stay. Y'all, my father is an engineer by trade and, as he puts it, a musician by everything else, so I can probably keep coming up with music-related blog post titles for a while. The first song I ever remember hearing is Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, no joke. Today's honorary song, Orange Blossom Special, is a bluegrass classic. You can check out Steve Martin (yes, that Steve Martin) and the Steep Canyon Rangers playing it here.
Anyway, Orange Blossom Special got a shout-out today because I started putting on citrus hues this morning and couldn't stop. I started with the skirt, which is pretty non-citrusy on its own, but once I added the pink shirt, I just had to keep going. I went all out with yellow shoes, a coral necklace, and lime earrings. I look a little like the inside of a grapefruit, but I feel happy (and much sweeter than a grapefruit, yuck). I feel the way an orange blossom smells, and if you've never smelled an orange blossom, you need to get yourself to a grove like, yesterday, because it's that wonderful.
