Let's Talk Turquoise

Jacket - Carven

          Ed. Note: Before we have any misunderstandings, what's not to like about this Carven coat? (I might say, it's turquoise . . . you might say, "Oh, it's turquoise!" -- you're with me I assume. . .) My dear friend Janice -- you know, the fabulous creator of The Vivienne Files --  is suggesting this turquoise coat is just what we need to add verve to her classic L.L. Bean basics, and I have no doubt she's right.

           I can most definitely imagine it on someone else, in fact I would love to see it on someone, and would even want to snap her picture because I think the coat is terrific and, truth be told would probably add a great deal to my black, black, black, navy, gray wardrobe, but coward that I am I don't think I could pull it off. Turquoise stops in my world in my jewelry box.

Could you? Would you?

        Heading out to Paris, today is My-Reason-For-Living-In-France's birthday and we're off to celebrate. Thank you again and again Janice.
