The End of The Beginning

We'll get to this cryptic title in a few. First, what am I wearing today?

All stuff you have seen before, combined in a new way. First, we have the leather sheath dress that I got at Neiman Marcus. Boy, am I glad that I kicked down for this thing!!! I have had it about a month, and have worn it three times already. It fits like a dream and has the coolest details.

It has a slight ostrich texture, princess and waist seams, two zip pockets and is fully lined. I believe it was on the order of 60% off. I would recommend this dress to anyone. Underneath it, I have an ivory chiffon blouse with ruffle cuffs from Speigel. To dress up this rather plain combo, I tied a black and red floral oblong scarf into a bow at my neckline.

This added a couple more colors to play off the accessories with. I took the opportunity to carry a red leather bag by Furlina.

Since the purse has silver hardware, I wore red and silver rings on both hands. On my left,

a pear shaped solitaire with a ruby band, and on my right,

a large fire opal. I wore the same tights and shoes as the last time I wore the leather dress.

Calvin Klein pilgrim shoes and black patterned tights. I love this outfit. I may try wearing this dress in warmer months to see if I can give it a different vibe. This one is punk pilgrim.

So anyway, the title. Tonight, I am going to the plastic surgeon to get a Vi-Peel. He will put it on at 4:30, then I will leave it on overnight and wash my face tomorrow morning. The peel comes with a kit of products to take care of my face afterwards. I will just be red and tight and stingy for a couple of days, and then the peeling will begin. I told my mom that if my face doesn't hurt too bad, we can reschedule our lunch date from last week. Also, I am going to the Clipper game on MLK day, and sitting courtside. Hopefully, I won't scare everyone off. I don't care about not being able to wear makeup for a couple of days. I can wear eye makeup. If it turns out half as good as the pictures Dr L showed me, I will be delighted. And you can bet that I will document every step of the journey. Here's to a less wrinkly, spotty, uneven, unglowing face!!!
