This is the color of blue that makes me think Jamaica. I have had this top for about 5 years. Wore it today for the first time. I had taken it to Jamaica to wear at my daughter's wedding. Alas, I didn't wear it. Came back and put in the closet and forgot. This cleaning out closets thing is a real eye opener. Anyway, any turquoise thing is a favorite now that I've cleaned out my closet.

You never know what you'll find
If your memory is like mine you can easily buy something and especially if it is end of season, you put it away and forget it. Ring a bell? Anyone besides me done that?
I did it with this blouse and when cleaning out what I thought was off season, found the blouse and tried it on. I have been going through all of the closets in the house and eliminating anything I don't like or that doesn't feel good. Ebay here it comes. Anyway, I found a lot of things that don't fit. Since I have had a phobia of trying on clothes before purchase, I found a lot of things that didn't fit properly. It may be the right size on the label but does the armhole feel tight? Does it make my stomach look bigger or show a bulge I don't want shown? I am trying on a few things that I have had for a year. I have stopped taking off the tags before trying on because if it does have to go to ebay, a tag is helpful.
Anyway I found the blouse. The sleeves are short but that is pretty normal on the blouses I have had. Otherwise the blouse fits fine and the colors are terrific. From Stein Mart. I had on Avon earrings. I love them. It's funny that I have a lot of red jewelry but not too many red garments. I'll have to think about that.
