Berry Berry Burgundy

Even though it's still roasting out there, I am easing my way into Fall Fashion. So I combined a jacket with pale pink pants instead of a similarly colored bottom, in order to arrive at this slightly schizophrenic look:

I usually wear this jacket with a burgundy bottom piece. These are Express slacks, combined with an embroidered jacket by Maxou, and a sleeveless sweater by Nine West. Here's a better look at that sweater.

It has a crochet yoke embellished with little gold beads. Here's a better look at the jacket:

          Let's get an even closer look at that embroidery on the front of the body of the jacket.

                                        I wore a large amethyst necklace with this outfit.

                         On my left hand, a gold/diamond dust bangle and my wedding rings.

On my right arm, a diamond/garnet ring and two garnet bracelets. All three stones are slightly different as far as the color of the garnets go.

I wanted my shoes to be as neutral as possible, so I went with my Dolce Vita suede shooties.

For a final twist (literally), I twisted my hair into an updo, and stuck about 40 bobby pins in it before spraying the crap out of it with Ellnet.

In a week's time, it has already faded to a more golden color. Disappointing, but expected.

So two links today!!! First, Jess at www.elegantlydressedandstylish.com has Turning Heads Tuesday. Then, Laura at www.walkinginmemphisinhighheels.com has Trend Spin, with the trend being fall fashion. I tried, but it's hard when it's 90 degrees out there. You be the judge, and have a great day!!!
