There is so much ladylike lavender goodness going on in this inspiration photo. I had to give it a try with my closet - combining a skirt and jacket I wore together previously, with a muted purple lace trim top. I'm a big fan of mixing lots of textures in an understated color palette like today's look. What's your take on texture: pile it on, or only in small doses?
