But I saw one person who looked great in that color. Back in the day when "mimosa" was THE color of the 80's, I was at lunch with my boss in Chcago. He kept staring blankly past me, so I turned around to see what was so damn fascinating. I saw a woman walk, nay, STRUT across the room wearing a large yet fetching sheath in can't-possibly-miss "mimosa". It was Oprah. She looked AWESOME.
Twenty-five years in Chicago and I only saw her that once.
Whoa. That's a tough color for anyone to pull off. I'd even be scared to use paint that color.
ReplyDeleteIs it a bridesmaid dress or do you just feel like torturing yourself in 2009 with unflattering colors?
Click on the photo - it's supposed to be the BIG color of 2009. Ick.
ReplyDeleteOh, but it's such a HOPEFUL, CHEERFUL, HAPPY color. Just we need in these times.
ReplyDeleteor something like that.
Blech.
Although, it does mean that our playroom is very trendy, all yellow and stuff!
I too look horrible in that so groovy color.

Yeah, I could see Oprah carrying it off. I think she may be the only one who can, though.
