Blue Bayou

March 7th, 2011

Gifted Elizabeth and James Blouse, H&M Skirt, Saint Claude Earrings, Philosophy di Alberta Feretti Sandals, Vintage Bag

For the better part of my stay in New Orleans, I lived in jeans and rain boots, so I was thrilled to get dressed up for a Bingo-themed brunch yesterday afternoon. I received this top (seen here) right before I left, and though it’s not typical Mardi Gras attire, it felt perfect for my first trip to the South. I had a great time and while I thoroughly enjoyed myself, there will be no fried foods, deceptively strong drinks or King Cakes in my immediate future. If you’d like to see more pictures, I’ve uploaded a new album on Facebook here.

    May I kindly suggest a new eyebrow makeover? I think less scary eyebrows would make you appear younger.

    You look pretty in anything! I swear if you dressed up as a monster you’d probably still look stunning! By the way, Love the outfit,

    By the way, don’t listen to Mary D. Coleman (2 in front of my comment) You are a natural beauty and are most definetley easier to look at than her! People these days are just so uncalled for and rude! Your gourgeous Emily!
