YESSSSSSS. More with the multiple shades of pink/burgundy/maroon. Love it. This is another stellar example of Jen's classic but a little quirky librarian style.

When I saw this outfit, I knew I had to try it with my new bright pink sleeveless blouse. The other pieces are staples of my wardrobe.

Burgundy skirt (Nordstrom), $2.61/wear

As for the extraneous peacock pendant? That's pure Sally.
Last weekend, I started watching the 6-episode British mini-series The Fades. I can't remember who recommended it (was it you?) but despite some initial concern that it was too much like a horror story and less like a supernatural thriller (which is a fine but real line for me), I ended up liked it and not being scared. It helped that from the beginning it looked so much like Fallout. Abandoned derelict building, random dead animals, bad-ass ghouls, gunshots...that's all so Fallout.
Anyway, I'd been curious whether I'd have scary dreams that night (since I watched just before bed) but instead I had a dream that I had two rabbits in a cage in my apartment. They were peering out intently from the cage and I said, "Sorry, bunnies, you can't come out yet." (When I related this to Robert with the comment that I don't know why they couldn't come out, he said that I probably hadn't rabbit-proofed the apartment yet. That sounds good to me.) The rabbits were not Kate and Leo--they weren't even mini rexes! Instead they were two very dark rabbits with black fur with chestnut undertones, very much like this pair. I would watch scary TV before bed every night if it would guarantee pleasant bunny dreams!

I did not recommend The Fades, but I did and do recommend the The Worricker Trilogy if you haven't seen it yet. In addition to its many other fine qualities, it has a charming "50 American actors" quality to it. (It's from the BBC, I think.)
Thanks for the reminder--I had forgotten the specific name of it.
Something about the overall style and tenor of it made me think you would like it.
