It seems like it's always time for the primaries.  But before you can say, "Tote Trove Lady, are you crazy?  You can't make jokes like that in today's political climate!," I'll say this: I'm only crazy about color, especially red, yellow, and blue -- the trio, triumvirate, and trifecta that give way to every other hue in the rainbow.

I love how primary colors mix to make everything from green trees to purple grapes to orange sunsets.  Also, how they morph into Snow White, Wonder Woman, and Wonder Bread with a whirl of the gown, cape, or circusy circles.

And that's why I wear them so often and am wearing them today.

Magical, memorable, and, dare I say, matriarchal.

That's the power of primaries.

Even if I was tempted to say the power of Pine-Sol instead.

Something New and Sparkly: Inspired by Wonder Woman and Wonder Bread





Fabulous Felt Primary Colors Necklace

Top: Material Girl, Macy's
Skirt: Marshalls
Shoes: Journeys
Bag: Journeys

I like primary colors.  They remind me of happy things like super heroes and squishy white bread.  Maybe that's why the outfit I built around this Fabulous Felt Primary Colors Necklace has a retro vibe that makes me think of simpler, cartoon-chronicled times.  Sigh.

Something New and Sparkly: Grade School Gourmet



Fabulous Felt Peanut Butter and Jelly Necklace

Sweater: American Living, JCPenney
Jeans: Zana Di, Boscov's
Shoes: Rocket Dog, DSW
Bag: Chinese Laundry, JCPenney

I still enjoy a good peanut butter and jelly sandwich every now and then.  My version of choice is creamy Jif and Smucker's strawberry preserves between two pieces of Wonder bread.  Laugh if you must, but when you think about it, the sugared fruit and nut spreads make for a somewhat sophisticated, downright Mediterranean combination.  Now, if only I could come up with a strong defense for my Juicy Juice juice boxes . . .
