Good morning friends!!! We survived last week's earthquake, tornadoes, flooding and hurricane Irene! Wow, what a crazy week! We were fortunate that we only lost power for about 8 hours and the hub is still vac-ing up the basement but other than that, we're good!
My dear friend Dawn over at Suitcase Vignettes has been without power since early on Saturday - before the storm even hit! I hope they turn her back on soon because I know she's itching to be blogging again!
So this week over at two birds they are doing the Inspiration Monday photo and it's of Olivia Wilde who I happen to think is just gorgeous! She looks so hip and stylish in her black and white stripes...
I have absolutely NOTHING in my wardrobe like that but here was my interpretation!
I actually wore this on Friday when I was running around in search of bottled water and D batteries (NONE to be found!) I mean if it was the end of the world, I wanted to look a little stylish!
Top and Capris: Fashion Bug
Shoes: Ann Klein
Bracelet: Vintage (EBay)
i love the pattern on that top! and that bracelet is so great! i'm glad to hear you weren't affected to much by the storm!
ReplyDeleteOkay, so first off, I really don't care for this Olivia Wilde look. So I must say, what you did with this inspiration is FABULOUS! The pattern on the top is gorgeous and you accessorized it beautifully...not overdoing it. PERFECT!!!! Hugs! ~Serene
ReplyDeletei admit, i skipped this week because i don't own anything close enough for my liking to the inspiration outfit. i own a bold striped sweater and cowboy boots, but it just doesn't go together...
ReplyDeletei think the simplicity of the black and white are elegant and i'm glad you made it through the storm, i lived in NC for 17 years and we never had to prepare for a storm
And stylish you do look. Try to be a little more proactive for the future. Water, batteries and non perishables go a long way when there is a disaster! Don't mean to preach, that's the way I was raised.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great top- the pattern is feminine and edgy at once. I'm from the east coast of Canada and was shocked to hear a hurricane was heading to NYC- usually that's California's weather! Glad you're safe.
ReplyDeleteglad to hear you're safe. I like the details on your top, nice design. The bracelet matches your black outfit perfectly!
