Wow! Does this look like I was a casualty at an explosion at the Crayola factory or what? But I love it! So much color and happiness in one outfit can’t be beat. It reminds me of Impressionist artwork…maybe this is what would have happened if Monet was a fashion designer instead of a painter. And the sandals are the most stupid comfortable pair of heels I’ve ever come across, so much so that I bought them in black as well. I got them on the cheap at Kohl’s. I never shop there, but finding sandals to go with this outfit turned in to an odyssey. I have two pairs I have to send back because they didn’t make the cut. I stopped at Kohl’s as kind of a last ditch effort and low and behold…the shoe gods smiled down upon me and there they were. As much as I love this outfit, I gotta say it was supremely hard to style. Colored shoes/sandals seemed like too much, but nude and black weren’t working either…and I think it probably would have been better without the necklace. I went back and forth and finally caved because I felt naked without one!
I wore this over the weekend to an event that was the first of the two world rocking things that I mentioned in last week’s post. Our oldest son got married. And this is really cool…he married one of my all-time favorite students from back in my high school teaching days. Seriously, how cool is that? And what a small world…who could’ve guessed that all those years she was calling me “Mrs. Stinedurf” she would be the next Mrs. Stinedurf. One other small thing that I haven’t quite been able to get my head around (this is the world rocking part), they’re going to have a baby…so, ummm…ya, you know what that makes me? Don’t say it, I’m not ready yet…I have a ten year old daughter for crying out loud! Ha!
