Yay I’m excited after my slacking to participate in this month’s Petite Fashion Challenge! You’ll notice I “Canadianized” the title swapping “colorized” for “colourized” :P.
The Challenge: Candy Colorized
Take a bowl full of colorful candies (M&Ms, Jolly Ranchers, jelly beans, etc.), close your eyes, and draw 2-3 pieces. Now use those colors (+ a neutral of your choosing) to form the basis for your ensemble.
**Extra brownie points if you post more than 1 colorful ensemble or if you add a DIY element (because I love DIYs so much!) :D**
The shoes are actually more vibrant in real life. I love them they’re so comfortable! Please don’t mind my overall messiness – I’m quite frazzled most days lately 😛 And yes you see we have no floors. This summer is all about the renovations.
***Also, don’t forget if you’re a US or Canadian reader you can enter my Cover FX giveaway!***
Shop a similar look:
I looooove the pop of yellow! In fact, I’m wearing nail polish almost the same color!
Very pretty. A fun colour for the summer. Its one of those outfit that people would stop and look at you in awe…
I like the yellow and white combination.
Hi Keeyatch, thanks for stopping by, I hope I can keep you reading ;). The shoes are actually corally/pink – I know, it’s hard to see in the picture. I should have taken a close up!
Eeee – thank you!
Aww you’re very welcome, thank you for your comment too!
LOL Vicky, yes many of us are cheaters 😛
Thank you so much!
Awww thanks so much!
LOL thanks Cee!
Haha the door handles came with the house – probably the only part of the house we’re not tearing up 😛 As the renos come together slowly I’ll try to include some photos in posts 😉
You should go back and get it! It makes me happy when I wear it 😛
Thank you very much, I appreciate it 🙂
Heee – tall? Thank you!
Thank you Ying! I missed participating!
Aww thank you Elle! what – you don’t have a yellow jacket? I’m surprised! Glad to enable you haha!
Thank you so much! My long weekend was great – hope yours was good too!
Thanks so much Kate!

Are your peep toes orange? It looks so nice combined with the yellow blazer!

Thanks for your sweet comment on my post!
I love your yellow jacket! Beautiful!
Haha, we seem to all know how to “cheat” a bit. 🙂
The yellow is so lovely on you, Elaine.
How lovely is that yellow jacket on you! Well done – love the outfit 🙂
Love that jacket! So vibrant and beautiful! Good job on the challenge!
Whatcha talking about lady, Callandra will be proud! Love this cute and bright outfit on you. Colors suit you!
Will we get more sneak peeks of your new house? From what I can tell, I already love your door handles, hahaha. Mine are the boring round garish gold ones. Boo!
I almost bought this jacket a few weeks ago! It looks so wonderful on you.
love it! your jacket is so adorable 🙂
I love your outfit – so fresh and sharp! Plus those jeans make you look sooo tall 🙂
Yay it nice to you see participate in PFC. I agreed with Elle, yellow is definitely your color. You glows in yellow.
Totally!
Elaine, the color yellow LOVES you! 🙂 I need to get myself a yellow jacket so I can wear it with white jeans (which I also don’t have…I think it’s time to go shopping :D)
I don’t know why I ever thought yellow would be a hard colour for Asians to pull off.. It looks amazing on you!

I think you picked great colors for the challenge! Love the sunny yellow jacket paired with white jeans. And the pick shoes add a nice extra pop of color. Hope you enjoy the long weekend 🙂
LOVE the yellow jacket on you! This look is fantastic, so summetime chic!!
No, I didn’t…I think I’m living under a rock lol…I’ve missed the last 2, I seem to keep missing announcements!
Thanks Tara! Did you do this challenge? I was thinking “Tara will have NO problem with this challenge at all” 😉
Oooh thanks Yvonne, can’t wait to see your outfit!
LOL steal away!! 😉
OH wow! can’t wait to see your outfit! I only went through a few of the challenge entries last night, hoping to get to rest today 🙂
Thanks NP – hopefully it’s a new fav for you?
Oh don’t worry, I think I missed 4 or 5 challenges before this one – and I did this one sooo last minute LOL!
Thanks roe!
LOL I have no clue – there is definitely only one Callandra 😉
Thank you Katherine!
Thanks so much Helen! I was pleasantly surprised at the fit of this one 🙂
Thanks Cynthia! I didn’t think I could either, but you never know 🙂
OMG I’m the same way – these jeans were on super sale which is the only reason I got them – I’ll be lucky if I make it through the whole season without ruining them 😛
LOL Yup, yellow and pink too! 😉
Haha thanks S! I thought it looked nice on you! But perhaps the colour was just too bright for your tastes 🙂
Thanks Sydney! Yes, after I got this jacket my eyes have been drawn to other yellow items 🙂
LOL Cher 😛
Thanks Jessy! At first I thought it would be way too bright for me, but pairing it with dark jeans or black didn’t seem right 🙂
That yellow blazer is great on you!
i love the yellow top! i wore yellow top on my challenge too! great job putting the outfit together!
Wow… Nice top 🙂 love that yellow but until now still don’t know how to combine it.. Hope it’s okay if I steal your idea 🙂
Nice to meet you ^^
I went a little crazy with this challenge, thinking we were to chose 3-4 candies, I chose 4 and added a neutral. 1 of the picks was yellow!
Please check out my post and leave me your thoughts on it!

That yellow and white look so fresh!! And I love the pop of pink with the shoes… I laughed when I saw your “channelling your inner Callandra” pic! How does she do it so well?? haha! 🙂
Love the yellow and white combo 🙂

Wow, what a great outfit! The outfit is so stylish. It fits you perfectly!
The yellow looks great on you! I don’t think I can pull of yellow very well – not as a top, anyway.
Hahahaha it’s ok you’re outfit totally rock anyways! I’m lovin’ your white jeans! I love to wear white jeans but I always spill something on myself after 5 minutes or so of putting it on! Clumsy me!

Your legs look SO long in those jeans!! Love the color combo and that yellow jacket on you! I tried on the same jacket and it did not look right on me lol
We both cheated…LOL =) Yellow is definitely your color, Elaine! I am drawn to yellow this summer.
Ha! I did notice the spelling of “colourized”. I do make a conscious effort of trying to “Americanize” all my spelling otherwise I risk being made fun of by my American friends. =/ Love the white and yellow together.
Ah, I like the yellow & white against each other. Very bright!
