Sophistirachet: An Ode

Here's an excerpt of an online article that I found and thought it was hilarious!

In The Fashionista's Closet: Double Duty

I wore this skirt to work as a skirt and added a mens shirt and leopard belt.

ap·pre·ci·a·tion: an expression of admiration, approval, or gratitude

Bill Blass shirt: rummage sale

Striped skirt: Target

Leopard belt: Gifted from Reiko

Bag: Thrifted

Wedges: BCBG

After work I pulled it up as a dress, opened the shirt and kept the same accessories. 

dis·re·spect·ful   - exhibiting lack of respect; rude and discourteous; insulting
 

Just a little vocabulary lesson for those who don't know the difference....

In The Fashionista's Closet: Friends Til The End

I went to dinner with one of my very best friends, we have known one another for over 15 years and I love her because she never judges me and always wishes me well in whatever I do. If I told her I was leaving my job(s) to go and join the circus, instead of giving me reasons why I shouldn't, she would exclaim, "Oh that's so EXCITING! You are going to have so much fun!" I think everyone deserves someone like her in their lives. She makes me want to be a better friend.

I am loving the Ralph Lauren blazer that Reiko thrifted for me, I wore it Friday and again the very next day. I gotta feeling that it's gonna be in heavy rotation....

 leopard top: Zara

layers of necklaces (there are 4 and some have multi-layers): Forever 21

cigarette pants: Gap

bag: shopping party

platforms: Michael Kors

We had a fabulous time! I've learned over the years that I want to surround myself with people who wish me well and who support me when I'm up, down or indifferent and even if that circle gets smaller, the quality of the relationships that I have is far richer. 

Have a blessed (and fashionable) day!
