And I'm Back in Black!

Well, Sal, I enjoyed the 2010 Summer Black-Out, but it was time to have a little black come back (and it's the only black this week, so that's not so bad, right?).

I also haven't done my personal laundry for a while, so I've been digging in the closet for stuff that is clean (I save up my good pieces and do a big load of delicates every few weeks):
I actually really wanted to wear these cropped pants that I've had for ages. I got the lime green suede Mary Janes on the weekend (Circa Joan & David for $6! Score!) and they just cried out for a little Audrey pant.

I felt very 50s/60s in this outfit.
I'm doing the twist. Sort of.

The stuff:
I just so happened to have these lime green wood earrings - and they went so well!

A close-up:
Two of my "souvenir" jewelry pieces: the ring from Scotland and the bracelet from St. Paul's in London.

Cardigan (Vero Moda), paisley top (Ann Taylor, consignment), cami (Vero Moda), pants (Focus 2000), shoes (Circa Joan & David, thrifted), earrings (Le Chateau), bracelet (St. Paul's Cathedral gift shop), ring (Scotland).

    Capri pants make me think of Mary Tyler Moore on the Dick Van Dyke show.

    Gorgeous shoes for a great price! I love the capri pants.

    I totally do the same thing with special wash items. Keep them all in a separate bag until i have enough for a load
