I wore this fab frock to make pierogis at a birthday party. Doesn't it look like the perfect dress to wear in the kitchen...very 50s vibe. I fell in love with this Igigi shirtdress...the style, the ruching at the waist, the flair of the skirt, the textured red leopard print fabric...all swoon-worthy. What kept me from buying it? The red leaned toward the pink side, which meant no red could be paired with it, also...the arms were huge. I thoroughly enjoyed wearing this adorable dress & I hope I get to try it out in other colors. 

Look how cute Val is!! I love that naughty little doggie. It was Angie's soon-to-be husband, Toby's, birthday...so 4 of us got together several hours before the party to make pierogi. We had sauerkraut, potato cheddar, & potato mustard greens as filling. Angie made everything, we just put it all together. I made Golabki (stuffed cabbage rolls) the night before. YUM. I am 75% Polish, so it is always a treat to eat the food of my people. And of course...there was dessert! Tahini chocolate mousse banana tart.

Savers was having a 50% off winter sale...so I got an orange wool autumn jacket, & some more cardigans...

Also, in the mail that day...Modcloth sale order...3 more Dream of the Crop cardigans...in honey, navy, & red...& a mustard skirt. 

My make-up this day included...Urban Decay eyeliner in Zero; NYX liquid liner; Too Faced eyeshadows in Showgirl, Jackpot, Golden Nugget, & Sin City; a mixture of NYX Russian Roulette & Bite Beauty Cranberry lipsticks; & Visions of Love nail polish by OPI.
