Wearing the Worm

I am wearing two silk items today. One is obvious, but the other is more subtle.



This sheath dress is obviously silk. It's from H&M, which I find hard to believe. I view H &M as the European Forever 21, but this dress sure is cute and it's lined. The only hard part is that the sizing is definitely not vanity sizing like in the US, so I don't order online, since I vary in their sizes.




On top, a blazer that I didn't know was silk until I read the care label.  I was thinking that it needed to go to the dry cleaner, so I checked the label, and it's 100% silk. I would have guessed that it was high quality gabardine.


I got this blazer in Beverly Hills many years ago. The label is Henri Bendel, which is an east coast store, so I am assuming that I got it in one of the many fabulous consignment shops up there.



It has the coolest lacing detail on the shoulders, but then when you look at the back...




So much more !!! It has always been a classic favorite of mine. I generally wear it with white jeans and a silver lurex tank top.



I took the opportunity to wear a beautiful set that was my mom's. It is a matching pendant and ring that has a huge moonstone center and blue topaz encircling that.





On my right arm, along with the ring, a silver bracelet with a gorgeous heavy ring clasp.



I went all out on the left arm. Two diamond tennis bracelets, a pear shaped pink tourmaline and a sapphire/diamond band.

Of course, my darling Pandi gave me a goodbye kiss:



Pandi is such a sweetheart - she is smart and cute and extremely loving. She responds to affection, and is pad and crate trained. Get your lovers from the ASPCA !!!

As a bonus, my April Birchbox came too !!





The theme is "Magic Inside", which I am pretty confident is a theory that I believe in.
Make your own magic !!!


I had the opportunity to select my products this month, and they are all things that I will use. From left to right:

1) Davines LOVE smoothing shampoo and conditioner - nice shampoo, already used. The shampoo came in a big bottle and the conditioner in a packet, but I will enjoy them.
2) Dr Jart Cicapair Tiger Grass Cream - another cream made of many different herbs. It will enter the rotation soon.
3) Number 4 Jour d' Automne Sugar Texturizing Spray - I need to get my layers refreshed, and then i will deploy this spray.
4) The Beauty Crop GRLPWR Lips Liquid Lipstick - I am notoriously slow at using lipstick, but this one is next in line.
5) Malin and Goetz Grapefruit Face Cleanser - got this before and loved it !!! May need to order soon.

Lotsa linkin' goin' on !!! Sorry to all my grammar teachers.
