What I'm Wearing: Magenta to the Rescue!

Happy Sunday everyone! I hope your weekend was terrific! I've had a busy one and it has kept me away from the interwebs, but nothing could separate us for long. "Reunited and it feels so good." Please tell me you know that song and just sang it along with me? I know you did, no need to be embarrassed. We're all friends here. Anyway, it is yet another craptastic day here in Michigan. It's been raining and the skies are gray. So how do I combat the blues? With a gray skirt of course. Well that AND sequins AND a magenta blazer.

As you all know, I am a blazer and jacket fiend, so when I saw this beauty at Forever 21 I knew she was mine. Add some sequins, some sexy studded heels and a mixed metal necklace and SHAZAM you've got a cute little outfit. As I'm typing this my husband just said to me "Why do you take your picture in front of that huge white pipe?" I responded as maturely as possible with "Shut up and stop ruining my life!" Ahhh gotta love mature adult conversation.

The following awkward photo is brought to you by the letter "S" and the color orange.
Blazer: Forever 21, Top: Forever 21 (several years old), Skirt: Macy's, Shoes: Madden Girl via DSW, Necklace: Gift
