Yellow + Gray....Love this color block!

Hi Gals,

I am very much of a color person, and I love playing with colors very much.  I like matching colors in different ways - tone on tone, big color contrasts, warm colors mixed with cool colors etc.....it's really fun!!  There are some colors which just really go well with each other after experimenting with them.  Like black + white, red + camel/beige, navy/purple + yellow, orange + brown, pale dusty pink + olive/khaki, fuchsia + gray etc....the list goes on!

Recently, I just realized that I love matching the yellow color with gray.  It's like a glimpse of the sun from a cloudy sky.....:P  See for yourself!  Yay or nay?

Wore this outfit to a friend's daughter's birthday party....yellow popping out...hehe!
