I know, I know... I Swore To Myself Today A Post Would Go Up...

Ladies, first my apologies.  I am barely keeping up this week.  Well, really, I am not keeping up at all.  You could say that it has largely been a craptastic week.  Hee Hee  Thanks again Kassi.  

That said, I swore to myself that I would somehow squeeze in a few minutes to get a post up today so here I sit at home during lunch trying desperately to get this done.  I know that when I "throw something together" for work it rarely turns out well so I apologize in advance for a post that will be decidedly defunct of whit and whimsy, let alone any truly thought provoking commentary.

Second, my most sincere THANK YOU to all that have taken the time to read my ramblings and comment on my blog.  I know that I have said it before but I am overwhelmed.  You guys are amazing!  I truly LOVE reading your comments and I hope you will continue to bless me with a few moments of your valuable time.  I am so honored when you do.

Now, onto today's outfit.


Your eyes do not deceive... those are indeed slacks.  If you read my blog at all, you know that I am a "skirt girl" for sure but occasionally I will break out the slacks just to keep people on their toes.  Hee Hee


Awful picture, huh?  I just wasn't willing to commit the time necessary to try and make it look a little better.


As you can see, yet another of my lovelies collected from Harold's over the years.  Miss that store so much.

Given that today's outfit was somewhat boring I decided to liven things up a bit with a great pair of shoes.



Aren't these pink suede heels just stunning?  LOVE them.  The only draw back, I have to be really careful not to get them wet.  As you all know, suede heels and water are not a good combination.

Okay, so that's it for today.  Back to work!

Blogging On My Lunch Break...

Today the weather in Dallas is awful.  Cold.  Windy.  Rainy.  Winter.  One of my favorite blogger buddies (Kassi from The Closet Intervention) used a new word in her post today.  The word - "Craptastic".  I looked it up, means - Crappy weather, fantastic day.  True.  Try Websters if you don't believe me.  Hee Hee

Anyway, it is the perfect word.  The weather really is crappy but I intend to have a fantastic day anyway.

Drop by and check Kassi's blog out if you don't already follow her.  She is great!

Moving on.... Does anyone else do their blogging on their lunch break?  Am I the only one?  Ordinarily I do not go home for lunch but today I decided I did not want to wait to get my outfit post up.  I am so thrilled with how this ensemble looks.  I just didn't want to wait until the end of the work day.  Hope you like it, too?

Well?


LOVE this hounstooth skirt.  You might remember from a previous post that I found this baby at a local resale shop for a mere $7.00!  What do you think of it?

I have already gotten my money's worth and since it has fast become one of my favorites, it will get many more spins to be sure .  Funny how our favorite wardrobe items change from time to time, huh?  

Another of my blogger buddies (Bessie from Bravoe Runway) just posted about how a recent acquisition has made its way to the top of her "favorites" as well.  Bessie puts the "S" in sophistication.  Drop by and check her blog out as well.



This is perhaps the softest sweater that I have ever felt.  As a result, I have it in at least three colors.  Hee Hee

Perfect for a craptastic day, huh?





Perfectly "walkable" and cute.  Hard to think of a better reason not to pull these babies out on a craptastic day!  How cool is that buckle?

Well, lunch is rapidly drawing to a close.  Gotta run.

Hope You Have A Fantastic Day!
