WIW 12/1 and 12/2: Fuschia Friday and Slouchy Saturday

1--3. I posted the first photo in the Fuschia Friday thread but I didn't get any good photos of what was underneath until late in the evening! Turns out I don't really have anything pink so I made due with my purple magenta cardi and felt pretty fab anyway!

Pink trench: Gallery, gift from April
Purple magenta cardi: Halogen
Multi silk blouse: Catherine Maladrino via consignment
Aqua skinnies; Levi's (men's), thrifted
Black studded belt: Target
Black boots: Dolce Vita
Burgundy clutch: Nine West
Gray pea jacket: consignment

And look how much better my hair got between photos 1 and 2! I had an appointment with my new hair lady and am super happy with the result!

4. Yesterday was just lazing around the house and getting ready for the Big Trip. Mr. K loved this slouchy boyfriendy outfit and kept telling me I looked "adorable!"

Gray lightweight sweatshirt: A local gym
Red and white blouse: the dollar table at the swap meet
Boyfriend jeans: GAP
Multi belt: Target
Black velvet and tartan sneakers: Nike

Your pink trench makes me smile. Thanks for that!

#3 is KILLER. Chic, happy, pulled together and fun. So "Mary".

Why don't I ever think of combos like magenta and turquoise? Love it! It looks great with the print blouse.

And YAY for new hair lady! It looks like you've got a great cut to look fab for your trip. When do you leave? And are you ready?

Thank you, Angie and Parsley! I am so happy that I bit the bullet and switched hair cutters. I love this cut!

Parsley, we are leaving TOMORROW!! My to-do list for the morning looks like this:

1. Go to the gym
2. Go to Vietnam

LOL! I think I am pretty much as ready as I'll ever be. I had planned to pack yesterday but ended up having to go to an emergency board meeting of a non-profit I'm involved in, so today will be packing day. But everything else is pretty well set. Mail stopped, newspaper stopped, housesitter briefed, clothes sprayed with mosquito repellent, travel docs squared away, and so on.

Of course Mr. K's list for today looks like this:

1. Start thinking about what I might want to pack for the trip...

Mr. K is so right - you are adorable! I can hardly focus on the outfits because that fab haircut is screaming for attention - gorgeous! Have a great time!

Wow, Mary!!! You look sensational in your new hair and in your great magenta and teal outfit.

And good luck!!! I hope your trip is wonderful and everything you dream. Will you be able to post to us from time to time?

Outfit no.3 looks great!

If you haven't yet left for Vietnam, have a safe flight and a wonderful trip!

You are indeed adorable in the boyfriend outfit, my guy likes it when I do "tomboy" as well.

And your aqua skinnies are so sizzlin hot on you, I canNOT believe they are men's pants.
