Lurking Presence

What I wore Tuesday night to a night out with the girls for dinner followed by an experience in an 'Escape Room' event...

Inspiration:

A bit of a funky combination, but I love trying 'funky combo's' so I think it is quirky but works... :)

Jacket, Dress, Beret - Forever 21

Booties - Jeffrey Campbell

TUESDAY:
The 'Escape Room' was fun....
We did the haunted 'Harvest Motel' version...
They split us up and locked us in 4 separate rooms where we had to solve puzzles and riddles to eventually open the room door. Then as a group we had to solve another puzzle to get out of the hallway and a final puzzle to get out of the lobby. In the lobby though there was a live actor who was a 'lurking presence' that was quite creepy. Needless to say majority of us, with the exception of one of my friends, were not very good and needed help to move forward... Fun though...

Project Runway

What I wore Sunday... Initially this was an outfit with a baseball top, scarf and a bomber jacket to watch my son's 8 AM baseball game...
Then after coming home and doing chores and laundry and dropping my daughter at a playdate I switched to the chiffon sleeveless blouse jacket and added accessories and made it to my mom's house so we can go to a 'Cabi' show together at her friend's house...

Inspiration from Pinterest:

Jacket - Forever 21

Top - Philip Lim for Target

Jeans - J Crew

Booties - Betsey Johnson

Accessories: TJ Maxx, Baublebar

Sunglasses - House of Harlow

SUNDAY:
My little slugger is having so much fun this off season baseball league with his dad coaching and managed to have 5 of his friends in his team...

This was an early morning game starting at 8 AM after coming home I attached household chores but in the midst my absolutely the most creative and imaginative person I know: daughter wanted me to help her to build a lava lamp where she discovered how to on youtube...
So we cleaned out a jar and and helped her build this:

Then Mom and I went to a 'Cabi' Show at her friend's house....
I thought Cabi was more of an older generation brand, but I was surprised with how many pieces I fell in love with. And I so remembered my Kika Paprika days and how much I love clothing parties...
They had amazing lookbooks which is I think what helps imagining these pieces in trendy outfits and how versatile they can be....
