I already knew I disliked these tunics from City Chic...but the colors were just so pretty that I had to try it anyway. I'm in the minority as most girls are in LOVE with this style...it just isn't for me. I don't understand how hanging saddlebag pockets are a good thing...perhaps it's because I don't get the pocket fascination? That didn't stop me from wearing this dress on three different days. 
David got me this fabulous long orange cardigan for Christmas & I love it...I've always shied away from long cardigans as I didn't think I liked them...but I do. This one is my favorite color & I can just throw it over anything...I think the v-neck is key...look how lovely it flows in the wind...
This day was frigid & super windy...David caught some of my suffering for beauty faces...
I kept telling myself I didn't need these...but really...how could I say no to Pumpkin Spice lipstick & eyeshadow limited edition?
Adorable doggieeeee! Super Boo & I checked out Woodcraft for tools & paint & found a bonus shop dog. Lunch at Indian buffet, then picking out our countertop colors...left is the kitchen & purple is for the main bathroom...Princetown. 
 Dinner at OM with the girlie & a ginger chai martini. 
Co-op stop with Kate after dinner (I don't know why I'm including all these photos...I usually edit a bit better since I take photos of EVERYTHING). David & I picked out the paint colors to go with our kitchen counters...
I'm fairly certain I didn't wear this outfit to have wine with Kate & Zelda...but I don't know what I did wear...so here it is. Someone spooged my car while I was at Kate's...I didn't quite know what it was until I got brave enough to smell it & discovered it was just shaving cream. 
My make-up with this outfit included...Urban Decay eyeliner in Abyss, Magnetic & Galaxy eyeshadow by UD, Watt & Twinkle eyeshadow by Kat von D, NYX eyeshadow palette in The Brights (3 colors), Bite Beauty lipstick in Aubergine, & OPI nail polish in This Color's Making Waves.

Flyaway Floral

 Dress: Flyaway Maxi Dress in Navy Floral Print by Jessica London (size 28) via Full Beauty
Sandals: Alegria, gift from David
Earring: etXarte
Necklace: Wendy Baker (flower), Chain- vintage
Bracelet: Vintage

I would have never known of the existence of this dress had I not seen it on Mustangsallytwo, she looked so stunningly glamorous in this dress...that I immediately bought it...& let it sit around all summer unworn. I finally wore this beauty back in September to pick up our new iPhones & attend a retirement party. Unfortunately, all the photos I took on my new iPhone were lost forever once we got home & synced up our new phones. You didn't miss anything...other than some adorable pictures of me with a yellow rose in my mouth. 
This dress! I always feel like a goddess in maxi dresses...but this dress made me feel like my fairy godmother had dressed me...I was a princess for a day...so many layers of flowing fabric. The fit on this dress was fantastic, although I couldn't get the neckline to lay down on one side...I'll have to play with that before I wear it next. 
I have to admit...when I think of Jessica London...I think of dowdy old lady clothes...but this dress changed my mind. I'll have to keep an eye on what Full Beauty is offering in the future. Also, they have amazing sales. 
I wore this dress a second time to meet with a jewelry designer with Super Boo to discuss ideas for a wedding ring. David & I feel like we've been married for years, but we are finally going to get around to filing the paperwork. We told him...large, ornate, garnet, Victorian bordello...& I brought in photos of bits & pieces of antique rings that I liked...sadly, I don't think he quite got it...or us. I'm still looking.
