Holiday 2010: Mixing Metals

Dec 1, 2010

I love sequins.  I love sparkle.  And I love shine.  What can I say?  I’m a Texas pageant queen trapped in a Hill Staffer’s body.  

Today, I decided to blend two different metallic, sequined pieces to create something for those of us with an un-curable love of sparkle.  But instead of mixing metallics of the same shade, I decided to pair a muted gold sequin blouse with bronze accessories.  

Blouse.  Vince Sequined Crepe T-shirt (Net-a-Porter, $295)

Pants.  Modern Tux Pant (White House, Black Market, $88)

Shoes.  LillyBee Carrie Pumps (SimplySoles, $185)

Clutch.  Vanessa Satin Evening Bag (eBags, $32)

Earrings.  Stephen Dweck Green Bead and Bronze Drops (Last Call, $100)

My dark under eye circles have been the bane of my existence since I was 12. Is the cause lack of sleep? Dehydration? Sinus issues? Stress? Who the hell knows. But there they are, every day, telling the world that I am an exhausted working Mom.

Saw It On Social: The Battle of the Spendy Swimsuits

Sloane loves the pool. She jumps from the deck into the water with a crash, never considering her own safety, only to emerge on the surface, shouting “Again!” The pool is my daughter’s happy place. But no place where I need to wear a swimsuit in public is a happy one for me.

The Mondays: July 22, 2024

The Crowdstrike/Microsoft Meltdown forced me to take a few days off this weekend. No laptop. No billable hours. So we packed Sloane up for a visit to a local llama farm, stopped by the pool, went for coffee, etc. Few things are as funny as watching a 23-month old feed carrots to a ravenous rescue […]
