I Love NEON.

neon is neutral
At least in my book anyway. It’s neon-ness puts it on the same plane as black, beige and white. Try it. You’ll see that the neon you are incorporating stands alone, that you may try to color coordinate other parts of your outfit or artistic composition but when it comes to the neon touch it’s the form, not color that makes you want to incorporate it.

A customer came into the showroom I work at last night and I literally wanted to snatch her handbag from her and keep it as my own. It was that lovely. This reminded me of how much I love neon. Especially neon orange. Those close to me have seen me with neon orange nails, handbags and accessories for quite some time now. I tried to find an image of the neon orange Swatch watch I wore until it was beyond repair, but was unable to. I even replaced the original neon band with a beige and white striped one; because the neon numbered clear face was neutral. I received many compliments on my custom designed Swatch watch.

I was able to find pictures of the handbag I covet. I will say it was more alluring in person, and the pictures don’t do it justice, but here we go. Many of you may be familiar with Rebecca Minkoff, I however am not, so let me be excited. Enjoy.

    Hi there,

    I really like your blog- I think we have similar tastes and styles of architecture in particular that we like. I also did a post on Frank LW recently after seeing the exhibition in NY! Keep up the inspirational posts! Sophie
