Get Real


My outfit Wednesday was inspired by J Crew look from Dec of 2013!:

GIven that I have the same shirt and hat had to create the outfit by adding coated skinny jeans and I used color blocked red/burgundy flats instead of jeweled heels which so would not fit my lifestyle...









Cap, Shirt, Necklace - J Crew
Jeggings - Guess

Pearls and Skulls

 This was my outfit during the day last Sunday….
I got this fully pearl and skull adorned baseball cap from the bazaar. Knowing full well it was a bit risky whether I can pull it off without looking too young or too cheesy, but something about the full adornment that called out to me and I knew I would regret it if I didn't get it….
It is pretty cool I think. :)

Got this topshop tee from the bazaar too. It has a tulle edging around the neck and the frame of the graphic photo in the middle is neon studs. Love that touch of neon… It was XL actually but the baggy look works especially at the price of 5 Liras which is around $2.50!!!!
Hat, tee - from Turkey
Shorts, Espadrilles - J Crew

SUNDAY:
It was a casual day we started the morning by setting up the slide and mini blow up pool for the kids to play with in the front yard. My cousin joined them with a snorkel to be funny.





Then at night after a quick dinner we went to Alacati again and first hit the 'blackberry juice' vendor at the request of my son who had loved it last time we had it….

 This sign lists all the benefits of the famous blackberry juice… Pretty much cures everything from fatigue to sleep problems to throat and blood and breathing and congestion etc….

Then we met my aunt and uncle for a cup of tea, cause pretty much every hour in Turkey is tea time (morning, mid morning, afternoon, late evening…)
Where we were sitting there were these two dove like birds on the telephone wires and we first thought they were fake cause they looked perfect but then they moved and we knew they were real!

Best thing that's ever been mine

FRIDAY:
Went to my daughter's school then stopped at Target for some last minute shopping for our trip.



Then headed straight to my son's school to watch his spring sing concert…
My parents met us there and afterwards they had a little treat party to celebrate end of school and start of spring break…














Afterwards we came home and I figured out what I was going to pack for the trip. You would be so impressed I paired it down to one coat and 2 pairs of boots ONLY! Every piece is used at least twice and the color scheme is black and white with Burgundy or mustard. And did go a little nuts on the beret department packing a different hat for each outfit to make it interesting.

My mom and daughter had a little tea party in her room while my stepdad took my son to the rec center then to swim practice…



Then I cooked an edamame salad for my bookclub meeting and left the family to go out to dinner while I headed downtown to meet the girls…

We met at my friend's clubhouse to discuss our last book 'The Circle'. Great discussion and catching up with each other's lives. And we found out the sex of babies our friend is having. TWIN GIRLS…
What a great night…
