Ooooh, new stuff!

I went to the consignment store today and poked around while waiting for my girlfriend to meet me for lunch.  In doing so, I dropped $45 on this silk scarf and Talbot's jacket.


The warp on the scarf is red, and the weft is green.  It changes color as you move.  LUV!  I learned this knot from une Femme!




The tags were still on the jacket - $189 new!  It's velvety like corduroy, but without the "lines" of corduroy, if that makes any sense.  It's a lovely dark brown and warm enough with a sweater under to forego a coat in this nice weather -- it is in the 40's.

Ugh, bad hair day.  Could it please grow faster?


I snapped that pic myself, but it was dark by the time I got home, so these next pics are terrible.  Yes, I know, need to find the cam battery charger, what else is new?  Perhaps I'll buy a new one for myself for Giftmas.

Observations:  bad hair, love this jacket, love this scarf, not a fan of these jeans but they are okay with the jacket.  I don't usually wear my belt exposed so that was interesting and I think flattering.  I think it looks odd to be bundled up on top but have bare skin on my feet, so perhaps a different shoe next time?

  2. It is very delicate and I'm sure I'll ruin it soon because I'm a clutz. Anything I don't damage in wearing, Hubby damages in washing! BTW he shrunk the hat that you said made my head look like a penis. Dammit. That thing was over thirty bucks!
