I earwormed myself with "I Just Had Sex," Kat. Totally still counts.
Hey, you still have cookies I bought. Though if you consider me a really bad Girl Scout cookie buyer and eat them or something, I would understand. I need to come see you and get them before that happens. Plus, hey, see you! I could do an LA day or two.
I think for color blocking you need to have more than one color in an article of clothing, but not in a print or pattern.
That's my understanding. Especially if the boundary between colors is non-standard. I wouldn't call a dress with a blue top and black skirt color-blocked, for instance. But the dress I wore today is green down the center and black down the sides, so that's color-blocked.
I think for color blocking you need to have more than one color in an article of clothing, but not in a print or pattern. Maybe a yellow blouse with a navy pocket?
I know that in the last fashion blog where I read the term, they attributed the colour blocking to the bold (canary) choice of clutch, so it wasn't even much about clothing--I think her dress was one colour, shoes another bright colour, and the yellow clutch.
I have no confidence in them over you--I don't even remember what blog it was.
Here's the definition by a random (different) blog:
Sure, it seems simple. Just wear a solid color and pair it with different bright, solid or neutral colors. But, I’ve had trouble putting together a cute color blocking outfit, yet I’m determined to try this bright bold trend before it fades.
And she adds:
You can choose a dress or handbag that already does the color blocking for you
That's the kind of confusion I was having. From looking at her page, the lack of pattern and the palette of colours seem to be what makes it legit.
But that's just a page.
I'm so sorry, Burrell. Peace and comfort to you and your family.

I threw them into the freezer (which I hope is fine, but I figure they'd last longer. We'd LOVE to see you!
I've already posted this on FB, but I love this kid's batman themed Make a Wish. I'm always intrigued by the non-standward Make-a-wish foundation wishes.

That's my understanding color-blocking also. Perhaps the definition has spread to include "wearing bright solid colors together that don't necessarily match"?
Perhaps the concept is evolving. I wear bright colors together willy-billy, so I kind of like the idea of putting a nice label on that.
Can I pretend to be color blocking when really I'm just wearing a red dress with black tights? Or would my purse need to be a different color. Actually, it is a very different red, so maybe I can get in under a technicality?
Maybe if you call the colors by different names?
Today is definitely the day to wear a black velvet cape to work, right? I mean, if not Halloween, when?
Yes!
I was very impressed with a coworker I saw walking away from me, way down the hall, and I said, "Who is that, the Hamburglar?" AND IT WAS.
