All Wrapped Up


Yesterday's outfit was inspired from a look in J Crew's 'looks we love' section in January 2014:

It is basic nautical colors but I loved the add of metallic silver sandals...




Jacket, Top, Pants, sunglasses - Forever 21
Sandals - BCBGeneration from shoedazzle

SUNDAY:
We had a leisurely morning but the time change made that time go by so fast. I didn't nearly get to do everything I wanted….
But we got ready and went to our Turkish friend's new house for a BBQ in this gorgeous weather we had in San Diego…

Looking at your big brown Eyes

 Today's outfit came out so much cuter than I had thought...
Initially I bought these pieces to put together the inspiration outfit below:
But I had already sold the polka dot scarf featured above so instead I added my fuzzy animal print beret that I bought from F21 months ago. It was perfect!





I love how the vest dyed in this 'cognac' color gives it suede like look:

I searched high and low for cuff boots this season with absolutely no luck. One day while at the outdoor class I saw these from gilt's sale and bought them right away. Exactly what I wanted and such a wearable low heel too. But when they came in the box I thought my legs were going to swim in them but since the widest part hits right at my knees it actually looks OK and makes my legs look thicker which I love.

TODAY:
Went to my first vendor bazaar today at a hotel. It was fun but clothes are very hard to sell at these types of events. People were just not looking at the rack but did sell accessories at least.
While I was working my hubby took the kids to buy their xmas tree with my step dad. Our tradition is kids get to pick a fresh mini tree that they decorate with their ornaments in the family room and we get to have the fancy (fake) tree in the living room.  But this time I guess they picked a full size tree so now it looks a bit pretentious with having two full sized trees in our house. They were so happy though. I self consult myself over and over to not get involved and let them hang their ornaments exactly where they want. WHich is completely grouped together exactly at their eye level.








Then we went to a BBQ at our friend's house!

Somewhere over the rainbow


This was my outfit on Sunday.  The inspiration came from this tiny tiny photo:


You can see how little it was on the actual page I cut out!

I just liked the combination of 'khaki' tones with the black tie...
I used the self belt of my black cardigan to create the 'tie'...

Blouse - Lucky
