These difficult days have left us craving some color in our lives

Not only can color help brighten your spirits, but it also looks amazing in a zoom conference. If navy blue represented a walk on the wild side in your wardrobe, an injection of color might be exactly what you need right now.

Perhaps you want to start small. We found these great little earrings, but we can’t decide whether we love the seafoam blue green or the pink cosmo color most. From Bluma Project,  save 15% on these $68 earrings by signing up for emails. We especially love that these earrings are hand made by artisans in Guatemala and that Bluma Project is run by a woman. While you are on the Bluma Project website, check out the colorful bags from Colombia.

Brie Earring

Another way to add a quick pop of color is a pretty scarf. Every time we look at this summery number from Rock Flower Paper, we can’t help but smile.  First time shoppers can save 10% on the $52.95 price. Color options are far too numerous to list. While you are visiting this website, look for brightly colored tunic tops and kimono scarves that double as shawls. What we especially love is that much of Rock Flower Paper’s clothing is made from recycled cotton, designed by women, and gift wrap is always free.

Katarina Pink Silk Scarf

This Rungolee.com silk top features a sporty contrasting side stripe with pearlized buttons and is available for $209 in 6 colors. Our favorite color is called pink samode floral, but really we love them all. Leave the side buttons open for a casual look- plus  opening the buttons has the added benefit of camouflaging a few extra pounds. Note, sizing is a bit generous- their size small is equivalent to a size 8. While you are on the Rungolee website, check out their wide variety of boho-chic tops. What we love is that Rungolee tops are made by artisans in India and like the other sites listed today, a woman is at the helm. 

Savannah Blouse SS

With colors with names like limoncello and sunset, this Lisa Todd fringed summer sweater will make you think you are on vacation. First time shoppers can save 15% on this $180 cotton sweater by signing up for emails. It’s available in 5 colors at lisatoddnow.com. Plus you guessed it, Lisa Todd is another company run by a woman and that’s one more reason to smile.

Twiggy Sweater

If you love a tailored look, this next dress at $98 from Bodenusa.com is for you. We especially like the Kelly green with navy contrast piping. We also love that this dress is machine washable. Please note- the sizing is UK, not US sizing. Check the size chart, and size up from your normal US size. Look for discounts ranging from 15-20% at check out and even more savings through Rakuten.com

Sabrina Ponte Shift Dress – Rich Emerald

Here’s one more dress from Boden. Flowy and feminine, it’s available in teal or in pink for $170. (Remember to size up, look for coupon codes and use Rakuten.)

Evangeline Dress – Vibrant Teal, Garden Charm

We will leave you with this paisley print kimono from Alice and Olivia on sale for $371.25 at Saks Fifth Avenue.  We love that the pretty print reverses, so it’s like getting two for the price of one. It’s sure to wow them at your next zoom meeting. Don’t forget to look for Saks coupon codes and Rakuten.com rebates.
