my dirty little secret

If that gets your attention then you're in the running for Gossip Queen. 

So my secret is this: If I create an outfit that I love I will wear it relentlessly, day after day until it gets dirty, or someone might notice that I haven't changed or I am over the combo and ready to move on. 

This outfit all began on Sunday.  Amongst the many blessings of church, it lends itself as a few hour trial period for Monday's work outfit.  And if Monday goes well, then my outfit typically resurfaces towards the end of the week if I have client appointment or say, a happy hour to attend.

Since I knew I would be wearing black tights with my tan booties, I needed to be sure that I offset the contrast with something lighter on top.  Balance.  This led me to my off-white knit sweater from...from...from, ok, Walmart. There I said it. Walmart. I am not a name brander when it comes to clothes, but I am also not a happy supporter of Wally-World either. Nonetheless, I knew it was a must when I saw it glowing on the hanger back in the year 2001.  It was my first year in college down in rural Minnesota. Not many options for clothing, well, for anything there. But I must admit to it's uniqueness and versatility.  It has held it's shape and served me well. 

This grey pencil skirt (with the cutest pink trim along the inside of the waist) screams for a low sophisticated loose hair bun.  A bit of back-combing through all of my hair, a few hanging tendrils and a loose twist all held together by a hand full of hair pins and some spray. 

Below is my necklace mentioned in my earlier post, Bound By Boots, when I, ehem, very politely told the Italian boutique owner that I would also be purchasing that necklace.  The necklace is quite powerful, not in a Hairy Potter sorcerer's stone sort of way, but it does make a statement.  Therefor, I must be careful not to over do the accessories.  Necklaces, earrings, glasses, nose rings, my outspoken opinion...I can easily clutter myself.

And so my fellow sorcerers, may you live a long and prosperous life...wuhahaahaha....
