Rain Delay

December 20th, 2010



Topshop Top, UO Skirt, Luv AJ Handpiece, Christian Louboutin Heels

I spent the majority of the weekend in sweats, since the rain was so relentless that I barely left the house.  Instead of going out for our normal Saturday night date, we ordered in and I figured a change of clothes would do me good.  I threw on this new skirt that’s part-sparkly-tutu-meets-spunky-librarian and even though we never stepped outside, it was a good change of pace.  Every once in a while I like when the weather forces me to stay indoors, burn candles in lieu of lights, read stacks of magazines and eat soup at every meal.

    A change of pace is always good. And staying in totally counts as a date sometimes.

  27. A lot of people have already said this but you’ve got an amazing skirt, really! haha

  28. Hi! I see you are holding the Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage concealer. What would be your recommendations in picking the right shade for this product?? Do you use it as under eye concealer as well?

  29. I love that next to last image! and your skirt is gorgeous.

  30. I just love that first picture of you in your beautiful red chair. And this skirt looks simply divine – you must give us a better look and tell us where it’s from!

    And I adore those rainy, candlelit weekends too!

  31. Too funny, I own that skirt. I was hoping to wear it on the holidays, but I have no idea what to pair with it? I’m utterly stumped. Would it better suited for Christmas Eve or Christmas Day? What shoes? What top? I feel like something other than just my solid black tank, as it is obviously too cold for just that and just doesn’t feel dressy enough for my particular holiday plans.

  32. OBSESSED with the bracelet ring!!!

  33. That skirt is soo fun. I love this.
