Feliz Cumpleanos

My poquita hermosa turned 15 today!!! Unbelievable - that means she is 102 in people years. We rescued her 5 years ago when she was 10. Senior dogs have increased needs and are more expensive, due to special food, medications, and vet bills. But my little Elli is worth every penny. Here she was as I was serenading her this morning:

All eyeballs. She got her favorite food and gets the run of the house today, even being allowed in rooms where she is usually banned. I'm sure she will enjoy violating the rules.

So what did I wear to celebrate this momentous occasion? (PS never mind the election, it's all Elli around here).

This is a Carole Little brocade skirt, topped with an iridescent purple button down from Express. On top, for some professional flair, I am wearing my Escada blazer with the sweater knit sleeves.

Here's a better look at the purple and black brocade.

My purple Austrian crystal necklace was the perfect complement

On my right arm, a pewter and black crystal costume bracelet.

On my left arm, two amethyst bracelets. You can really see the difference in the color of the stones.

And that is all for today. Linking with www.theblushblonde.com, www.elegantlydressedandstylish.com and www.northwestblonde.com

Have a great Election Dae (Elli's real name) and get out and vote!!!
