Grr... I don't have to work until early afternoon on Thursdays and was soooo looking forward to a few hours this morning to take care of a ton of stuff that I'm behind on. But, I had no internet! Grrrrrrrrrr... Sooooo frustrating, because everything was online!
Whatever, it's back now and I'm off to work in a half hour.
So, I'll leave you with my Wednesday get-up. I kind of like it when my outfit consists of only 2 things: Dress. Boots.
This is the return of what my husband has coined the "prison dress." Actually, the first thing he said when he saw me yesterday morning was, "Yay! Prison dress!" I love you, too.

There's something about black and white that just begs for red. It seems too easy, but I couldn't resist.
Though the photos don't show it too well, I did a new topknot that I'm totally in love with and it attracted many compliments yesterday. In my ten minutes of speed blog-reading yesterday morning before work, I checked out La Rue Nueve's Hair Tutorial. I always wondered how she got her baby fine hair to look like such a lush pile of awesomeness in her topknot. I was under the impression that perhaps is was stuffed with some prosthetic foam or something - I'm not beyond that if it was. Anyway, thanks so much for tips, Christen!

Oh that is so funny! I just read Christen's hair tutorial and wanted to try it out today but didnt have the time to put it all together. It was a wash and go kind of morning. Man I really love those boots, and they look great with your (prison) dress :)
ReplyDeleteYou're too cute to be a convict...you're more like a sexy pirate!!! ;)
ReplyDeleteIs the dress from the American Living line at JCP? I just got a striped t-shirt dress that's AL about a month ago and was amazed at the fit--it had shape, but didn't cling, which is so important in knitwear, don't you think?
I love your striped dress! I need on like it!

ReplyDeleteYour boots make me want to whistle and be inappropriate to you...has that happened yet?
I love the prison dress!! It looks amazing on you! I wish I could pull off the stripes...it just makes me look huge in the wrong places. =( What is your secret?
ReplyDeleteLove the boots too with it! Red boots are so wonderful, aren't they? I want a pair....
