matchity matchity

My friend Fern and I have recently been having some conversations about matching. The basic problem is that she undermatches while I horrifically overmatch. While both of us have truly been making a concerted effort, today we have reverted to form. Jennifern is sporting a lovely lavendar jacked with a black and white patterned skirt--perfectly appropriate work attire! Until you unbutton the jacket and reveal the hugely clashing multicolored blouse (which Fern has no intention of revealing) and the yellow and green flip-flops. This is nothing, however, when compared to the match-fest wrapped on my person today. It all started with a turquoise tee paired with some pink capris. Cute! Summer! 100+ degrees outside! Then I added the accessories. Pink pointy flats, turqoise earrings, pink necklace (beaded by the wyldeone!), and multiple turqoise and pink rings. Seriously, it's a human manifestation of the quellesurprise design scheme excecuted in vomit-inducing pastel glory. I need some help.

Hello, my name is Amy, and I'm a match-a-holic.

Boy, aren't you just Ms. Blogging 2006 today! As for the matching, I'm all good with it, but turquoise and pink?? That seems a bit mid- to late-'80s, Miss Chan. I would appreciate a visual reprisal.

Additionally, the turquoise and pink "gems" on your ring perfectly match with the rest of the outfit.

So, it is now too hot to wear the jacket, and as comfort, for me, comes before fashion, I have opted to remove said jacket, thereby displaying my lack of matchingnitude.

Dev, I will be cycling in front of your house in approximately fifty minutes. Watch out!

Fern, I noticed whilst refilling my water bottle a few moments ago that when you are seated, the non-matchingnitude is totally non-noticable!
