You betcha! Wear it in good health.

Today it's a Tocca white blouse for $198. I look nothing like the model but I think it's a wearable numbah.

To go with, these lovelies from Sundance for $88

And I still have enough left over for lunch.

I'm torn, should I go for darkstone?

or sandstone?

Kevy Baby · 05-13-2007, 09:18 AM

I say go with the sandstone. It brings out the color in your eyes better.

Also, I've heard sandstone is the new black.

I'm going to take 2 days worth of shoping and make a complete, but daring outfit. I'm going to have to see how I feel about mixing prints in this way. I think it works.....for now.

I think the mix of prints could work. Last night, only because Real Simple put the idea in my head (I never think of these things on my own), I wore a black skirt that has sort of an embroidered swirly pattern in white with a black top with white pin dots. No one asked me if I got dressed in the dark.

I so need these pants for dancing. They would be perfect with my wedgies.

They would look WONDERFUL with your cute shoes! However, I have a tip. The Gap has some wide leg trousers in a similar pinstripe. They were a bit too low on the waist for me, but they were cute. I don't see them on their web site, but a store may be worth checking out. They were not exoensive at all.

I've gotten into swing dancing lately and I want an outfit to go to a swing club in LA where people get dressed up.

= $260

= $26 (on sale)

one can dream!
