Greetings Fashion Mavens,
I was "turned down" this weekend after experiencing a rather pricey trip to NY. Man, I did not plan this little trip well so I was forced to reluctantly ball outta control....and I'm still reeling from the aftereffects!!! My bf tells me to be thankful that I was able to do it and support my friend and colleague (went to his daughter's wedding). Of course you know I had to cut my eyes at him real hard....but alas, he's right. It's amazing how we don't blink an eyelash when our money goes towards things we subconsciously place as our top priority (i.e. hair, makeup, clothes, technology, etc.) but we complain about everything else (i.e. car troubles, house repairs, bills, etc.). HEL-LO! I'm obviously preaching to the choir here! Let's get it together folks! I'll make a pledge to do better...I encourage those of you like me to take the same pledge. I know I gotta get my life!!!
Moving right along......I've posted a date night number below....although I took pictures during the day.
Sayonara!

I was really feeling this necklace. I actually built a simple outfit around this extraordinary piece. I'm in love with tribal inspired pieces.
The bf loves when I dress 'in simple outfits' so this little combo made him happy. He definitely appreciates my personal style but he prefers my 'effortlessly chic' style the best. Guys.....why must they douse cold water on us fashion divas??? However, he loves my shoe game so I'll let this infarction slide for a while :-)
Sidebar: These jeans were gripping the heck out of my thighs. I felt quite violated!
....although my eyes were closed, I still liked this pic, LOL.
