Pricey

Over $50--Thursday, 9/24/15

Focal item: Navy/bright pink diamond shell

Today's ensemble is a Franken-outfit inspired by 3 different but compatible looks.

#1:  A burgundy skirt, navy patterned top, and nude shoes.

#2:  A pink skirt (love the pleats), a navy patterned top (love the elephants), and nude shoes.

#3:  A pink pencil skirt, pink patterned top, and black blazer.

So I present a bright pink pencil skirt, navy and pink patterned top, and navy blazer with nude shoes.


Navy/bright pink diamond shell (Nordstrom), $19.50/wear+ [yikes, only worn twice!]
Bright pink pencil skirt (JCP), $2.58/wear
*Navy tipped blazer (thrifted, Nordstrom), $11.99/wear+
Nude wedges by Cole Haan, $17.13/wear
Pink drop necklace (Outfit Additions), $2.60/wear

Outfit total: $53.80/wear

Oh boy.  That's a hefty price tag, considering that only one item was new and it was thrifted (though at a higher-than-Goodwill price, but still).

Maybe someday I will wear this top in an outfit that isn't all navy and bright pink, but I think I still have a couple variations on the theme before I absolutely need to branch out.


I can't decide if it was the price tag on this outfit or its pinkness and chic styling that knocked out this Florida white bunny, but....awwwww, she's so cute.



In other news...Last night I started getting sick and I've spent all day vacillating between "hey I think I'm doing better" and "waaaaaaah!"  So glad tomorrow is Friday.

Since I've been sick all week, I often am sleeping just like the bunny. Hope you aren't coming down with anything. I hate being sick on the weekend like I was last weekend.

I hope you're starting to do better finally. My stomach has been a bit touchy today but mostly I'm doing better.
