Too Much Soy Sauce

Ugh. I had sushi for lunch yesterday and used about a gallon of soy sauce on it. I was guzzling water all night long, and now I am really puffy. Oh well, it was worth it.

So on Tuesday night, I decided to stop at Nordstrom Rack before I went home, because it was still too hot to workout. I found a cool pair of Ivanka Trump shoes on sale for $30, down from $150. Can't beat that!!



I also spied a pair of J Simp shoes for $20, down from $79. I figured I could wear one pair this summer and one pair next summer.




But when I got to the register, credit card smoking away in my hand, I was charged $0.02 for both. That's right - two CENTS. It turns out that once shoes are 80% off, but still on the rack, they are removed to be sent out to a jobber for off price sale. It you happen to stumble across them before they are removed, they cost $0.01 apiece. Timing is everything. There was an employee back there scanning and rearranging shoes, but I didn't pay any attention to him. Anyway, YAY !!!

So anyway, what did I wear yesterday for my sushi extravaganza?




This is a scuba skirt by Sharagano and a knit top with a draped chiffon panel from One World. I got them at Stein Mart. With them, I wore orange shoes that a friend gave me. She got them for a wedding but never wore them, since the heels were too high.



I wore my Joan Rivers convertible pin/pendant with coral and turquoise colored inserts.



On my right arm, an amethyst  ring from Doc, and two of my mom's bracelets. One is pink coral from Maui Divers and one is turquoise and tanzanite.



On my left arm, my yellow gold wedding set and two enamel bangles from Charming Charlie.

So what about today?  I committed the ultimate fashion sin - I wore the same top two days in a row, since all I did yesterday was sit in air conditioned meetings and didn't sweat.
 Of course, I wore the new Ivanka Trump shoes.



I wore it with old tan pants and a Sigrid Olsen sweater. Here's a closeup of the fine, wavy knit.


Two necklaces again !! The first is a multicolored pearl torsade. The longer one is herringbone silver with a Cookie Lee pendant.



On my right arm, my Swarovksi Nirvana in Black Diamond, and my Swarovski Infinity bracelet.





On my left arm, two silver bracelets, and an adventurine ring.



And that's about it. Tonight, I go to the plastic surgeon's office for some touch ups. Gory pix to come!!
