Thrifted blazer; American Apparel skirt; Mustard Seed tank; Ash sandals; jewelry from unknown vendorsAs much as I want to wear multiple bright colors, it never seems to work out. I wore my DIY sleeveless blazer with plenty of goes-with-everything black, red drop earrings, and my favorite orange lipstick.
