ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK

I HAVE HAD THIS DRESS IN THE BACK OF THE CLOSET FOR ABOUT A YEAR. THEN I TOOK SOME SCISSORS TO IT AND CUT OFF THE SLEEVES AND HALF OF THE BOTTOM. THERE WAS SOME SORT OF MATERIAL ATTACHED TO IT MASQUERADING AS DESIGN. NOW I CAN'T STOP WEARING IT! THE FRANCO SARTO LEOPARD SLIDES ARE TRULY MY MOST COMFORTABLE SHOES THIS WHOLE SUMMER. I PAIRED IT WITH A CHADWICKS BAG BECAUSE THE CLASH OF PRINTS IS UNEXPECTED. NOW I HAVE TO GO PREPARE FOR MY ESCAPE FROM NYC BEFORE THE HURRICANE HITS! STAY SAFE EVERYONE AND PRAY!

BUSINESS CASUAL

A BIG THANK YOU TO ALL FOR THE SWEET COMMENTS. THEY MAKE MY DAY! APOLOGIES FOR THE LACK OF POSTS. EVERYTHING WILL PICK BACK UP SOON. HOPE EVERYONE IS HAVING A LOVELY WEEKEND!

FOR SALE

THE UBIQUITOUS LAND OF SALES IS A MAGICAL PLACE. FASHIONABLE NAMES AND INSANELY LOW PRICES CAN INDUCE ONE TO SPEND AN ENTIRE PAYCHECK. FORTUNATELY, I DID NOT.

RED SHORTS

A BRIEF RESPITE FROM SUMMER DRESSES YIELDED THESE DIY CUT OFFS IN AN INTOXICATING SHADE OF RED.
HAPPY WEEKEND, EVERYONE!

SPOT LIKE A POLKA DOT

WEARING A DRESS FROM THE THRIFT STORE. AGAIN. THIS ONE WAS PURCHASED BACK IN 2002. IT HAS A SLIGHTLY RETRO APPEAL THAT ALWAYS TEMPS ME TO WEAR STOCKINGS. I DID NOT.
