Not to kick the dead horse, but the color seems perfect for fall and winter--with brown in fall, especially, as it can impart a much-needed jolt that's not too contrasty.

I just made a list of the 12, and I suspect there's more in my closet that I can't remember off the top of my head. <br /><br />But does that make this a neutral or a workhorse? Hmmm. I don't know about purple/pink as a neutral, so let's call it a workhorse.<br /><br />Cynthia - since you have a similar shade that matches everything, what do you think? Neutral or workhorse?<br /><br />A-Dubs: You can actually see Jude's snout on the left-hand side of the picture, but I added another shot of him. He's tickled that he has a fan base. Will FR be making any appearances over at IPF soon?<br /><br />La Fille, Rad & KB: I'm pretty excited about the grown-upness of this purchase, given that the only other adult thing I've bought is a car, and I gave that away last month. It's being delivered in a couple of weeks, so I'll post pictures once it's all settled, and before a certain dog can cover it with fur.Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18403024177515079403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6632064987562852587.post-34954598338638706102010-09-13T14:58:58.158-04:002010-09-13T14:58:58.158-04:00I agree with LyddieGal: 12 imagined remixes is an ...I agree with LyddieGal: 12 imagined remixes is an impressive statistic. In fact, I think it might qualify the purpley-pinky cardigan for either "wardrobe workhorse" or "neutral" status. Once you've decided which it shall be, I shall adjust the record accordingly. <br /><br />Also, you look great in this dress and in these colours, I (still) covet those BA shoes, and where is Jude?Academic Writer (a.k.a.
