Feeling blah? Maybe you need some green and gold in your life! I love the pairing of rich colors, I guess it's because it makes you feel happy for what you do have in life. But really, we must remember to be thankful for what we do have!

Several times a year, our family does Thanksgiving. Sounds crazy, right? It started this year when we were done with the Birthday's, Anniversary's, etc, and we thought, why is this delicious meal only done in November? So...we divided the duties, and made Thanksgiving in March. It was wonderful and good. So good, we did it like 2 more times- I know, we are the envy of most people.:P

This is the J.Crew antiqued sequin gold tank, and is every bit as cool as it looks. I also have the dress version, which I don't know if I will ever get to go somewhere cool to wear it to...maybe to Vegas, we'll see. The J.Crew Cashmere Cardi is wonderfully colored, and of course, the Belle Satchel in Pebble. Got 1 left, and it truly is the polished bag of the season:

Sometimes, the colors your wear will define your mood. I used to be afraid of colors, sticking with darker colors, but I found wearing brighter brights can really cheer you up (not to mention the others around you!) I'm finding that I really love these rosette chiffon belts, and that they really give the outfit the perfect yipppppeee! of color.

It's like Michael Jackson's song...it don't matter if you're black or white. Yup, I got invited to a black/white themed party in Santa Barbara this weekend- much of me toyed with the idea of going in a white dress, but then I get the dreaded barrage of "why aren't you married yet" questions...and I sold my island eyelet dress this morning, so scratch that.

I found the j.crew sanur dress in black and thought, ok, this better work, because the twisted strap jersey dress had this horrible plastic ribbing that was just tearing up my skin- so I dug up my chiffon ribbon belt, a cashmere cardigan in snow and I'm off to the races.

Should be somewhat cooler along the coastline, so that's where the cashmere comes in. I think the chiffon belt adds a nice feminine touch to the outfit, so I decided to keep the other color belts for when I wear jeans + tees.
