Not so Mellow Yellow

Personally, I can't wear yellow against my face-it totally washes me out, but I love the way yellow livens up an outfit-like this. I find yellow shoes especially fetching:






Top: 1, 2: Old Navy Bottom: Boden USA, Old Navy

The rain boots are only $24.50, or you could try Saks Fifth Avenue for a similar version at $115.



And, who can forget the beautiful Latika from "Slumdog Millionaire" dancing joyously at the end of the movie in her huge yellow scarf?

Grab a bright yellow hand bag on your way out the door to transform a drab outfit.

Or, if you are blessed enough to have some pigment in your skin, try framing your face with sunshine:
