This afternoon I took advantage of Texas' tax free weekend to pick up a few new duds.  My mom encouraged me to get a shirt with a mauve and pink paisley pattern.  I usually shy away from warm colors, thinking they don't look good with my skin tone, but she convinced me.  I loved it so much that I immediately removed the tags and wore it out tonight.  Later, when I was hanging it up in my closet, I was startled by how much it stood out against all the blacks, blues, and grays of my wardrobe.  Not a pink, purple, or red in sight.  Until tonight.
I thought back to 
my post about Scarf 5, in which I said 
"I'm not a pink person. I don't believe I own a single piece of pink clothing."  Boy, have things changed in just a few short days!  I think this scarf project is shaking things up for me.  I am dressing in the pink and I am feeling in the pink.  Thank you, scarves!
