Fuchsia - chartreuse - toasted bagel is my fave combo. It reminds me of Rugrats and the animated Nickelodeon hey day!

The whimsical practicality of the alabaster-blue-red outfit is after my own heart. There’s nothing I love more than an Oz-coded outfit and you look like you followed the yellow brick road to your cute little computer job at the wizard’s telecommunications office. The open weave flats are also adorable. Personally, I’ve been into a gray-black-primal red color combo that says “it’s winter, but I’m still warm-blooded”

Been wearing a lot of olive green/blood red (usually as a shoe!)/cobalt blue to the office - feels appropriate enough for a corporate job but still lets me wear colors that feel both grounding and electrifying

in honor of south hemisphere summer i would say yellow + baby pink 🌸🌸

definitely huge fan of lacquer red and a baby blue, plus navy for neutrals/accents and maybe a brown leather for accessories!

I saw someone bike by wearing a bright indigo sweater and warm, saturated cinnamon brown pleated shorts. Took my breath away. Heather grey socks would put me in heaven. Thanks for this great post!

so in love with the romance of chartreuse + fuschia + the flower!

lately ive been loving mature/intense primary color palettes — deep inky blues, almost indigo; goldenrod yellows; reddish magentas. there’s something so grounding and serious yet playful about them

Very much love the first combo. I would have adored skirt in actual 1996, and do today. Im liking petrol, mustard and either lilac or pale pink together, right now. Alternatively substituting the mustard for rust/terracotta.

Viv Chen's avatar

omg you locked something in my brain with PETROL!

i was harvesting lemons last week and rly taking in the smell of decomposing lemons on the ground…! they do still smell good even with (and including?) the acrid rot smell mixed in. i was thinking ab how it would be interesting to make a perfume based on that smell (maybe the rot slightly dialed back for wearability, lol) and wondering what other notes a perfumer might think to add in.

Viv Chen's avatar

right?? something about the cold season makes it smell good. that would be very interesting, a rotting lemon scent. i am imagining a cashmere smell or maybe something oceanic and briny

Marisa's avatar

omg yes seaweed-y sounds like it would fit well. or grassy new springtime growth for the season too :)

Current favorite has got to be shades of chocolate brown and sage green!

Viv Chen's avatar

sage is so pretty with neutrals

The Marfa shoes are incredible! Viv, you have the best colour sense ever! Your combinations feel organic, but not forced. I love building outfits shoe first - it always seems to yield something exciting and new.

I’ve been wearing a lot of purple and chartreuse! I recently acquired a Vivienne Westwood scarf in this colour scheme and I’ve been unable to stop wearing it since.
