I DON'T CARE... I LOVE IT



YOU'RE ON A DIFFERENT ROAD/ I'M IN THE MILKY WAY/YOU WANT ME DOWN ON EARTH/ BUT I AM UP IN SPACE/






YOU'RE FROM THE 70S/


BUT I'M A 90S BITCH/






SO... WE GOTTA KILL THIS SWITCH/
I LOVE IT!

FUNNY FACE--- THINK PINK!

"This is the only thing I have an allergic reaction to. Someone please fucking tell me why everyone loves pink?"
(Rachel Zoe Project, Season 5. Statement was in reference to a pink swatch she was considering for her upcoming collection)

Well Rachel... waste no time trying to figure this out in your pretty little head because I found the answer:

First, the most obvious and duh answer, it's a good break from the staples: black, grey, and white; however, the TRUE answer is... because the classic movie, Funny Face, told us to!





Pink Clothes, pink washer and dryer, pink iron, pink car, pink walls, pink rooms. "The great American woman who waits for me to tell them what to wear should be immersed in all things pink" (Ms. Prescott, Editor of Quality Magazine--Funny Face).  This command lives on in a way that other colors just cannot seem to. I mean, why wasn't it topaz?

So this is me not bucking at all-- pink Halston Heritage Peplum blouse.

Have a "smarvelous" week

PS: Excuse my ashy elbows, I have learned to live with them since they seem to be a constant companion.  Hopefully, you will too.

Sword Fight!!!







This skirt is not really made for any kind of strenuous activity but my Nephew does not really care about that.  He demanded I play swords with him and well, he is way too cute for me to ever say no.
I am wearing:
Milly top
Moschino skirt
Manolo Blahnik Chaos sandals

XOXO
Have a great week.

Peacock Sunday

I am in love with lounge wear, so when I saw these Vince silk drawstring pants I had to have it. They do nothing for one's body shape but the way it feels against your skin, coupled with the fact that it is currently on sale made it worth the purchase.


 To dress it up for an afternoon meal, I accessorized it with this peacock sweater from Topshop and bold jewelry. And of course after lunch, since they are basically pyjama pants, I was able to start my post meal ritual of rubbing my over full belly without the hassles of say... trying to unbutton my jeans or pulling the band of my garment over my belly for some breathing room.



Manolo Blahnik BB pumps and my LV everyday bag


Earrings are from J Crew and necklace is Kenneth Lane.
Wish you all a happy Sunday and see you next week

Up in the Air

Lately, I've been doing a lot of traveling to visit friends.  I've yet to get the packing down to a carry on that I can actually carry by myself, but thankfully all is not lost.  I came to the realization that below outfit is by far my favorite and most comfortable airport outfit.





This outfit also folds up nicely and takes up no space when it comes to packing. The dress can also be paired with heels sans hat for a night out to a strip club. Yes... that is where I found myself on my first night out in Florida. Thanks Jen for a lovely night!

Alexander Wang cashmere dress
Moccasin boots
Rag and Bone hat
And 90s lipstick

25 and UP

From what I heard through the grapevine, otherwise known as my all knowing friend Nicole, "when you are 25 and down, you... capital S, SHOW up to the club;  but when you are 25 and up, you... capital SSS... SHOW up to brunch!

So always one to take heed to sound advise, I made sure to sparkle for  sunday brunch even though it was a rainy day in Houston

Used J. Crew belt as a choker necklace.  I have a thing for flimsy sandals. This is my newest pair and to say I am in love with it will be an understatement. The colors alone on that thing...



Asos blue sparkly sweater
Erdem flower power shorts
Sophia Webster sandals
Vintage bag and umbrella

Hope you have a wonderful week!
XOXO
