Peacock Colored Dreams

Hey everybody...This is just a quick post. One simple picture. I bought this poncho from Lane Bryant years ago. Maybe 8? I don't quite remember, and I never wear it...I look at it all of the time and it just never makes the final edits of my outfit and I don't know why. It's gorgeous, lots of textures, sheer, velvet, beaded all of the things that make my heart beat a little faster.

I knew I wanted to take some flicks for the blog, but also knew that there was no time to do it (Thank you Patty for the quick snap on a busy day). I've been having peacock colored dreams lately and thought about wearing my LYS jumper with my new teal suede pumps and suddenly it came to me. Toss on the beloved yet often ignored poncho!

And here it is:

Here's what I'm wearing:

Poncho - Lane Bryant

Jumper - LYS for Kmart

Teal Pumps - BFT

Quick Pics

This weekend was one of those utterly amazing action packed weekends that goes down in the books. It began with a surprise party for my mom and sister in Philly, then a pretty cool hotel...followed by brunch.

Mad dash back to the city for some much needed rest. Then up for Sunday brunch with two of my besties who now live in Miami and LA. Got to meet yet another perfect and adorable baby...that's the hard part of when friends move far away. You miss some pretty major stuff. Then a little shopping followed by a movie with the best movie date in the history of the world. We saw The Debt with Helen Mirren. Pretty hardcore theme but wonderfully written, directed and acted.

Here are a few flicks of what I wore Sunday. This outfit is definitely a testament to my motto: "I shop everywhere". There are stores that I don't care for or that generally don't have things that I want but I always pop in once in a while to make sure there isn't some magic that I need in my life. Example 1: this leatherette jacket is from Lane Bryant. That's not really my speed but the jacket is amaze and someone will need to pry off my body! Example 2: I've been looking for a neon tank everywhere and where do I find the PERFECT one? K-Mart! I know, I died too...but seriously that LYS line is full of amaaaaaaze stuff. It's crazy cheap too so, grab it.
