full spectrum.

I realize I post mainly in neutrals, shades of grey and taupe. It's not that I don't like and appreciate color, I just prefer the washed out tints and find them soothing. With the overcast sky and never-ending rain I've dealt with this week, I needed some brightness, some frivolity, to break through the dreary front.

The fake cashmere scarves on every street corner, with their stick-on "pashmina" labels peeling off, make me smile. I do love my $5 scarves. I love them in every color.
Rainbow hair.
Taste the rainbow of vitamins.
This had better be what my next birthday cake looks like. With 27 layers of delicious color.
The late, the great, Alexander McQueen.
My *dream* library.
