Double Trouble Or Twice the Fun ??

Ok, you guys. I was just minding my own business on the way home from work yesterday, when I passed this:

My favorite consignment boutique was having a 50% off sale!!!

 

 

Of course, in I went. And now, the reason for the title of this post. I have this dress already:

 

It's made by BB Dakota, and I love it. So imagine my delight when Stacy's had it in another colorway.

 

 

I also have this belt already :

 

 

So imagine my delight when Stacy's also had it in another colorway.

 

 

 

 

But I'm not stoppin' there!!! (I sound like the guy who sells Bacon Bowls on TV). I also got a houndstooth dress.

 

 

Here's a closeup of this crazy number.

 

 

 

And I nabbed a sheer jacket with embellishment.

 

Check out the sleeves on this baby.

So home I went, with my Stacy's bag, only $30 poorer (not bad for me).

Of course, I immediately styled this dress for today - it's supposed to be in the mid to high 80s here in HB today. Here's how it turned out:

Dress and belt from Stacy's, and red cashmere zip front cardi from Neiman Marcus. I wanted to wear comfortable, neutral shoes because of the color riot of this marvelous dress.

Merona wedges to the rescue!!!! For my necklace, I went with another consignment find, in matte gold with colored cabochons.

And this outfit was a great reason to break out the red and gold jewelry. On my right,

A ruby cocktail ring and a goldtone/leather cuff from INC. On my left,

Some of the bangles I got in Kansas City last summer, and a blue topaz/garnet ring.

So let's get to linking!!! First, as always, Lindsey at www.thepleatedpoppy.com for What I Wore. Then, as always, lovely Tameka from www.pastriespumpsandpi.blogspot.com  for Who's Wearing What Wednesday. Last, but never least, Liz from www.shoppingmycloset.com for Style Me Wednesday. This should be fun and inspiring!!!

Okay, so I am very happy this morning. Guess who isn't joining me in the glee-fest?

Poor little Elli !!! Isabel is coming to clean today, so Elli has to be crated. I have never seen such a dirty look on the face of a 4 pound Chihuahua. I will be expecting a lot of disgruntled cackling when I get home. I'll get her a treat at lunchtime. See you all later!!!
