I decided earlier this week that I needed to get nail polish to match the red gloves I was making, (can't have clashing reds when I take off the gloves!). Since the plan was a wee bit of shopping, I also decided I should look for shirts to go with my skirts in progress. As all the fabric is rather colorful, it would difficult to get an exact color match from memory. Oh hi there strip on the edge of the fabric with all the colors used listed separately! ( I have no clue what the name for this bit is, but it's helpful!)
Along with one (mostly) finished glove, these strips were crammed into a pocket of my purse to use as reference at the store.
I think I did pretty well with the nail polish, it's not exact, just amazingly close:
I found a couple of rather plain shirts in wonderful colors. I may have gotten funny looks in the store as I checked colors, but dang it, they match my fabrics!
There was also a slightly less practical outfit purchase. The pieces were found on the clearance racks and once picked up, I couldn't seem to put them back on said racks. I may also have a pair of black, lace up, Victorian style high heeled boots that beg to be worn with this!
It may be a bit much for my normally grocery shopping run. I will likely wear it anyway!
