Crazy Lady

Yup, I'm just a crazy lady today--and this, my first day back at work.  When I bought this designer jacket at JC Penny, and I just kept on dreaming about this combination!  Go figure.  Maybe what influenced this crazy combo is the fact that I didn't want to wear the same old winter clothes again.

Course, maybe I went to far.  I'm intrigued at the pattern mixing thing, and debated many times before I left the house this morn if I should go for it.  I did. 

I do love these stockings tho!  They are a dainty, lace stocking that are a combo of merino wool and lycra.  So comfortable, yet not so fragile that I worry about them.  Perfect for spring.  And can you believe I got them at the Vermont Country Store on sale?

  5. I'm a big fan of patterned tights and loving the mixing and matching of stripes and florals--will have to give it a go for spring.

  6. Hey, you're still blogging! I'm glad. I especially love the skirt with the tights. You've inspired me, I'm going to wear hot pink today too.

  7. I think I saw that jacket in the JCPenney commercial last night. Our store closed in January. I will miss it, they had nice clothes for someone my age and that is where I could find a dress.
    Good for you for having the confidence to dress with color and pattern. I can only do one pattern in clothing...but in cards/scrapbooking I can easily combine them.
    BTW I finished the SECRET LIVES OF DRESSES. I really liked it and will suggest it to my book club. it even has discussion questions in the back. Since I am frugal (aka cheap) I borrowed it from the library (and the first one to read it).
