The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book: Peach Fuzz
Not wanting to overwhelm you with all the frivolity of multiple style challenges and articles in one day, Nancy and I decided to post this month’s Good Buy/Good-Bye Book a day later than normal.
We are featuring Pantone‘s Color of the Year, Peach Fuzz, and it seems that I am not alone when I say this color does nothing for me. Therefore, I don’t own much of it and apparently, based on participation for this theme, nobody else really wears Peach Fuzz clothing either. That is a big fail for Pantone!
Welcome to The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book!
The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book is a monthly series hosted by Nancy of Nancy’s Fashion Style and myself. Every month, we invite you to share a photo or two of your Good (or Bad) Buy items that fit the stated theme. We ask that you also provide a short description explaining if the item you are sharing was a Good Buy or one that you will be saying Good-Bye to (formerly known as Bad Buys). Nancy and I will both publish a round up post featuring all of the submissions on the 15th of each month.
Anyone who would like to participate and be featured can send us their photos with a short description via email. You do not have to be a blogger to join. Anyone is welcome! We will give you the theme for the next month at the conclusion of each post. Photos will be due to us by the 10th of the month.
Thank you to everyone who joined us this month. If you sent me a photo, but do not see it in my post, be sure to check Nancy’s post. If you don’t see your photo in either post, please let us know right away and we will add it. Sometimes the submissions can get lost in the shuffle.

Up Next for May: Peep-Toe Shoes
You are invited to join us in May to share your favorite (or least favorite) Peep-Toe Shoes. They can be heels, flats, boots, or sneakers. If there is a cutout in the toe box for your toes to peep through, then it’s a Peep-Toe Shoe!
You are welcome to send two photos if you’d like to be featured on both blogs. Remember to include a brief description about your submissions. Please submit your photos and descriptions by the 10th of May to shelbeeontheedge@gmail.com or to info@nancysfashionstyle.com so we can put you in the spotlight.

I think that Lesley , on my blog, looks best in Peach. But other then that, why in heavens name is it the colour of the year righ? I do appreciate the two toned dress Jodie is wearing!

I agree, Nancy! It is a terrible color for most people! But this was fun anyway!

I tend to stick a bit more to coral rather than peach and while I was going to pull out some coral/peachy tones for this challenge I found that the one or two pieces I do have are all for very, very warm weather which we just are not having yet this year.

I am with you on that, Joanne! Coral is a much more flattering color with its pinkish undertones than peach with its orange base. We are finally getting some days with spring weather even though we are already a full month into the spring season. Come on already!

I’m shocked that no one wanted to join in. Even though I don’t have much of the color, I love the appeal of trying new shades of colors.
Heck, I’m working on my peach post for our Mag 8.

I think it is just a really hard color for most people so no one joined because no one owns any Peach Fuzz. I am using the same outfit that I shared on Nancy’s Good Buy/Good-Bye post for Peach Fuzz because I don’t really have anything else! I am looking forward to seeing what you all style for this color.

Just think…the stores will soon be full of peach fuzz! I just can’t wear that color so I’ll save a few bucks! Peep toes…hmmm…I’ll have to check on that one!

It is such an unflattering color for most people so it makes me laugh that the retailers will be bursting with it. And then it will all be on clearance by August! I like peep toes almost as little as I like Peach Fuzz! Haha. But I do have a lot of peep toe booties from a few years ago when they were super trendy.

You definitely do suit more vibrant colours. And you have the personality to carry them off.
