A Bummer of A Summer?

We still have a couple of weeks until the official beginning of the season. Apparently, we still have a lot of work to do, because this is the corner office view this morning.



It's been drizzly here for the last couple of mornings. But because of the drought, drizzly is good.

What did I wear to get sprinkled on?


This is a vintage Moschary jacket and INC pants. I looked up Moschary to see what the provenance is, and apparently, it was a brand from the 80s. There was one jacket on Etsy that was $125.00, so I guess it was sold in the nicer stores.  Here's a look at the side of the pants, showing the topstitching detail.



Here's a better look at the jacket.


It has some pretty intricate seaming. Underneath it, I am wearing a satin top from JC Penney.






Let's get a better look at the top.


It has beading and trim around the empire waist, and ruching around the neckline. It also has tiny pleats all over the front and back.

With it, I wore my agate necklace that I got at a street fair last year.


On my right hand, a silver cable bracelet and a silver/mother of pearl ring.


One my left, three silver bracelets and the matching silver/onyx ring.



I chose my Enzo Angiolini gladiators to go with this getup.



The other night, my Estee Lauder representative, Magda, emailed me. There is a new gift with purchase offer.



It came in a big Lisa Perry tote with a sunglass case. Inside, there were some products.


I got the following:
1) Resilience lift night firming face and neck cream
2) Take It Away makeup remover
3) Super Bold Volume mascara
4) A matching lipstick and gloss in a dusty rose color

You had to spend $35, so this is what I got.


Double Wear Maximum Cover makeup. It has SPF 15, and is long wearing. I like full coverage foundation with a matte finish. Since it's long wear, you have to use moisturizer under it. She also threw in a ton of samples.


I got 4 packets of Nutritious Vitality 8 overnight cream and 2 packets of Vitality 8 Radiant Detox cream. I had $20 in free Macy's cash, so this haul cost me $17. That's less than drug store makeup prices !!

Thursday's links are here!!! First, Alice at www.happinessatmidlife.com for Throwback Thursday - one of my favorites, and Moschary fits right in. Then Nicole at www.highlatitudestyle.com has Top Of The World Style. She's fairly new to me, but she always has great outfits. Lastly, Tara at www.mixmatchfashion.com has Summer Style. She's a teacher, so it's summer for her ( but not for Huntington Beach just yet). Have a great day - I'm a tad tired from the party. But we have a great lecture today - Snake Bites, Spider Bites, Marine Life Stings and Insect Stings. I can't wait!!!
