Fred Butler's seven days of rainbow style got me wondering whether I had the capacity to do monochromatic style too.  Sadly my shoe and outerwear collections don't stretch into the colour realms that Fred's do.  In addition, my colours are slightly different to Fred's ones.... a selection of seven colours that I will always be drawn to, hence why I have more items in those colours, though strictly speaking I don't have favourite colours (thank god I've never been asked that silly question in interviews....).  The North Sea winds might have battered my head and boxed my ears a bit but I'm making a conscious effort to make sure I don't retreat into a blah sea of navy and grey now that I've dug out some of these ye olde frocks...
