on Pam is inspired by one of my favorites..<em>.Green Eggs and Ham<\/em> by Dr. Seuss.<\/p>\n<p>Just five years ago, you would have heard me say&#8230;<em>I do not like to wear pink shirts, nor graphic tees, nor even skirts.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>I do not like them, Sam I am&#8230;not in a box, not in a frock&#8230;I do not like them&#8230;not on Pam.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>So, it is rather funny that lo and behold, pink is now in my best colors&#8230;( I have also changed my mind about graphic tees and skirts&#8230;more to come on these).<\/p>\n<p>Proving, that with fashion it is always a good thing to have an open mind&#8230;.you never know when you might see things differently.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s probe pink shirts on Pam a bit further.&nbsp; Of course, Sam-I AM can join
