Leota's Sweetheart dresses are always winners for me. While I didn't love this pattern, there were two different colors of orange...so I threw all the orange at it & I like it. Great fit & length. A bit va-va-voom for work, so I pinned it...but not in this photo. This dress is now retired, so if I had wanted it...I could have probably bought it for cheap. But, it was a one & done for me. I'm trying to feel pretty here...even though my right leg is still blown up...healing, but slowly...sooooooooo sloooooowly. So, I haven't been dressing up much lately...which means fewer blog posts. On the plus side...I'm completely caught up with outfit photos.
I was pleased with how this vintage Miriam Haskell necklace went with the orange teardrops in my bracelet/earrings set.
My make-up with this outfit included...NYX eyeliner in Deep Blue, Urban Decay eyeshadow in Honey, Tangerine eyeshadow by Make Up For Ever, Dozen Carnations lipstick from MAC, & Morgan Taylor nail polish in Sunrise in the City.
I first wore this dress to get a facial from Sara at ANiU...I've been getting them every month this winter & it has been luxurious. Not only does she give an amazingly relaxing facial & scalp massage...but she massages my arms & hands as well. Also...I came home to my Sephora Play! box, a workshop being built in our backyard, & a broken closet mirror...I hope it's not still 7 years bad luck if it arrives already shattered.
On another day I wore this outfit to work with David & to have dinner & cuteness with Angie & Freddie afterwards...
The curtain ladies came to visit...this first photo is the fabric & trim we picked for the dining room...& below it, the two materials we have tentatively chosen for our living room.
My leg infection has been hurting me so terribly that I had to cancel my plans to market with Kate on Saturday...so she came to visit us, with sparkling wine, on Sunday...where I did not wear this dress. The girlie was our first proper guest to hang out with us in our newly finished, empty living/dining room! The dogs enjoy following the sunbeams.
Necessary Ulta run...I ran out of eyebrows! My quest to fill up my jewelry box with colors I'm missing continues, & an hour between clients at work gives me a chance to relax with a good book. I just finished reading Lauren Groff's Fates & Furies...& am now onto an older book of hers, Arcadia.
