You are my sunshine

I bought this awesome yellow paperbag style skirt at Forever 21 a few months back because I have been trying to incorperate more yellow into my wardrobe (quite successfully actually!). But figuring out how to wear this skirt was tougher than I thought. It seems yellow on the bottom is tougher to wear than yellow on the top.
I was inspired by pinterest when I saw several "pins" featuring yellow and grey as a colour combo. I loved the way the grey balanced the yellow as a neutral, and avoided the "bumble bee vibe" that black and yellow creates. It was so much easier to then add other colours once the grey top and tights grounded the outift. When I put the outfit on I also immediately started singing "You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy, when skies are grey!"
For the record, I don't actually own a cardigan as cute as this one (the one I wore was just plain white), but I will definitely be looking for one now!

You are my sunshine
