Fabulous colors & pattern on this dress. Fantastic fit with Leota...such great work dresses. I had this back in the fall & wore it with sandals. 

I know this dress is too casual for these fancy shoes, but the color, shape, pattern...is all too perfect & they had to be together. 

The fabric part of these shoes are glittery.

And the pin too, right?!

My make-up with this outfit included...Urban Decay eyeliner in Sabbath, Damaged & Strike eyeshadow by UD, Pumpkin lipliner from NYX, UD lipstick in Bang, Sugarpill Cosmetics lipstick in Nectar, & ILNP nail polish in Pumpkin Patch. 

A while back we were watching Iron Chef & there was this guy competing, Mason Hereford...I'd forgotten all about him until his cookbook cropped up in the best of 2022...so I checked it out at the library. It's a bit too hipster for me (think: gas station food)...but this Cabbage Patch salad sounded incredible, with its funky weird flavor combinations (galangal, shrimp paste, fish sauce, tamarind concentrate)...& it was. I served that with Indonesian Chicken Curry. We had to drop off Viktor (the truck) at the dealer for some updates. We were going to walk to Vinny's nearby, but they gave us a loaner. We (mostly me) found so many things we needed 2 carts. 

Who picks a beige interior?! This 2023 Grand Cherokee was the same burgundy as Viktor, but the inside was terrible. We ended up driving this for 5 days. David's small thrifted pile. The other 5 photos are mine...the second pic is stuff to wear to bed/around the house. 

And this first photo is workout/hiking clothing. Speaking of beige...I found this pretty tapestry coat...I nearly didn't get it because it's so neutral, but the fabric was lovely. I found a purple Leota dress for work. And as always...lots of cardigans. I'm also amassing quite a sweater collection...which I had at a bigger size as well & rarely wore...so I'm not sure who is wearing these sweaters?

Here I am....this is how I look more often than not...rolled out of bed to attend Pilates in my pajamas...AND I got a compliment on my leopard outfit (different leopard, 2 days in a row). And another meal out of a best cookbooks of 2022 list, Eric Kim's Korean American. This was his A Lot of Cabbage with Curried Chicken Cutlets (although I used thighs)...it was yum. 

These Lesley Evers tights kept being advertised to me on Facebook...I had planned on buying all 3 pair, but my favorite was sold out so I didn't get any, but when they informed me they were back in stock, add to cart. And then these 2 showed up alone...the 3rd pair was like the design on her bag...which came a few weeks later. These tights are spectacular! I adore patterned tights like these, but they always have that line where the design stops/starts...& these don't have that! How?! And finally...my weekly cardigan haul from Poshmark. The woman I bought the purple one from included a coordinating shirt. Check out that cashmere vintage 50s beaded number...gorgeous.
