Positively Pink

Monday already? Man, how does that happen?
I am feeling in the pink! Ha, get it? Ha, I kill myself. Seriously, that's a whole lotta pink going on.

"Under the word "brocade" in the dictionary, there's a picture of that coat," said one of my coworkers.  Yup, this jacket exemplifies brocade.

  • Dress - Jacob, consignment; just purchased yesterday here
  • Coat - Aldo, thrifted; last seen here in April with cream and pink
  • Shoes - Two Lips, thrifted; last seen here in August with my chambray dress

I tallied up all my clothing items for one of my coworkers:

  • Coat: $24.95
  • Dress: $10.00
  • Shoes: $2.00 (that's not a typo)

The dress did well on its first wear. It's pretty light and summery, though, so I think I will store it away for now. I wish it had pockets. Other than that, it's a great dress, and I'm sure I'll wear it a lot in the summer.

The stuff:
Monday shoes - they've got to be comfy.

Red and pink bling:
Even though I keep saying I'm tired of this necklace, it keeps hanging around!

  • Earrings - local
  • Necklace - Plum
Woo hoo! Shoe Shine is on this Friday! 
See you there!

    The pink dress pairs so well with that coat! You definitely will get a lot of wear out of it in the warmer weather- such a nice cheerful colour! Although you do well at wearing colour all through the year I guess! :)

    Definitely in the pink! Looking bright and sassy, Sheila, winter doesn't have to mean dark colours and heavy fabrics, does it? xxx

    I've always been a fan of brocade - it exudes luxury in my book. Certainly that coat is an outstanding garment.
