I'm Almost Not Crazy

 Today's Sequined skirt combo was inspired by a photo in the Victoria's Secret Catalog:
I spent 20 minutes this morning looking for my silver sequined skirt. I was certain it was in the bin where I keep evening gowns on top of my daughter's closet. But it wasn't. Then searched all the extra closets in the house and no luck. In all honesty I don't remember when I saw it last so for all I know I might have given it away years ago. So, had to settle to wearing my black sequin skirt instead. This is the famous skirt I wore to my prom and  I have worn a few times to a club with my hubby. This is the first time I am wearing it during the day. And to pre school of all places!
But as I always say people expect nothing less form me so my outfits no longer have a shock effect on people that do know me. And I have to admit this stretchy mini is quite comfortable to move around and since it is high waist it does not ride up.
To make it work for the day I went super casual with everything else!


And all this was so I can participate in

 When I saw this tee on another blogger I had to visit the mentioned Stylemint website....
 I wrapped the multi chain alex & chloe necklace around my wrist like a bracelet...

  1. It's funny -- and not the least bit surprising -- that you have a reputation for dressing well. Most people don't so you certainly stand out. I wish I were in your world so I can see these pretty outfits on a regular basis. You must be very charismatic in person.

  15. You're really sweet. I hope you know that. On top of all your other nice qualities, you are kind -- and that's something I admire greatly. If you ever get to Oz, the Wizard will give you a medal for this. :)
