Flame & Fortune

 You saw yesterday I wore this same jacket/coat in a very casual combo of skinny jeans and boots and a beanie. Today wanted to show how you can vamp up the same jacket...

The inspiration was from January 2011 issue of Lucky Magazine:

 Obviously this was a very 'lady like' combo but I decided to twist it up a bit!

 I wore a peplum mini with a window pane graphic top and these funky hose I got last year but never worn to really edge it up. The lita's help of course and the yellow necklace adds unexpected pop of interest...

 This hose actually came with additional tie on black ribbon but I wasn't going there..... As it was crazy enough as it is...

 This jacket was so soft and comfy all day long....

TODAY:
Started the morning trying to get our christmas card ordered before heading to my mom's house for a play date/party gathering with a new group of Turkish Ladies I have not met before. Always enjoy meeting new people.
Then came home to rest a bit to find my husband and finished the big TV installation and now everything is working. We tried to try out the 3D glasses but they needed to be charged so that will be for tomorrow.
Then went to a dinner party at our friend's house and had a great night.
And a big surprise tonight when we were getting the kids ready for bath after teeth flossing my son's TWO teeth came off. His first two!
It was such a surprise and excitement. One of them actually fell to the floor and the other one was bent out so I pulled it off. Found the other tooth washed them both and blotted his bloody mouth. Luckily we have been talking about this so he was not freaking out. He actually was pretty excited that tooth fairy will come tonight and he expects two gifts!
Even my daughter is excited the tooth fairy will be visiting our home.

Lacing it up

Once again I am behind in posts. This happens whenever we have a crazy busy weekends where I don't even log on at night and therefore no photo uploads or posting...
This was my outfit Saturday night to go out for the birthday celebrations of my Hubby and Sister!

The inspiration was from a Chanel Ad in June 2012 issue of Elle Magazine:

I have been wanting to wear these fab all lace pants my mom loaned to me. And this was perfect. 

I am loving this bold leather lizard skin cuff from Stella and Dot! When you have such a quality statement piece I decided to wear it solo! As much as I love Forever 21 for the ability to satisfy and fashion lusts in an affordable way there is something to be said about wearing high quality stuff...

So pretty much every man in my family did not get that these pants were lined with a nude colored lining. They kept asking if I was naked underneath!!??

I need to get my bangs trimmed!

SATURDAY:
The day was crazy starting with my infusion appointment, followed by picking up cupcakes and going to my son's last soccer game then having his trophy and pizza party.
We then went to our friends' house for an impromptu playdate and probably stayed longer than we should cause it was a mad rush coming home and showering the whole family and getting dressed to make it to downtown for a super early 5:15 PM dinner reservation!
The dinner was with the whole family, kids included. Then My mom and step-dad took the kids to their house to spend the night and we stayed out with my sister and brother in law and their friends to go out...

Left to Right: My daughter, mom, me, sister, sister's friend and SIL...

My dark princess mixing stripes and polka dots!

My friend made this tutu for her last Christmas....

Found these tights at H&M. They actually do not have a kids dept at the store we went to but someone must have returned them. They have cats on the toes!
The shoes by the way are Michael Kors (bought from Marshall's!)

With my Man!

When you have kids you can never blow your own candles or open your own gifts!

We actually had to light them up twice cause my daughter started crying that she didn't get to blow them in the first try!

My little ones. My son was so proud of his trophy that he brought it to dinner!

The Family!

Then later at the club:

The group was pushing my poor brother in law who does not drink to do shots! Amazingly after 3 shots of whiskey he woke up just fine! Isn't nice to be young?

I can't say we blended in with the 20 sth year olds but we hung in there!

Fun Night!
