Daily Outfit - 11/18/09

dailywear

Today's Inspiration Calendar called for "Be a femme fatale in lace", and I really wanted to do it. However, the one lace thing I own just felt way too dressy no matter what layering combos I thought up. So I decided to skip ahead to tomorrow with "Layer-up a patterned dress" which I could seriously do 95% of the time!

I did decide to put a Sex and the City twist on the combo though to celebrate the announcement of The Carrie Diaries by Candace Bushnell being released in April 2010 with my "Roger" Belt and my House of Field Scarf (as in Patricia Field, lead stylish for the SATC show and movie).

Now I know not everyone likes SATC, but for me it struck such a cord. I remember once the buzz really started up about the show after the 1st & 2nd seasons (didn't have HBO in college) my mom and I ran out to get the VHS tapes (DVDs hadn't even really kicked off yet either) and had a marathon session of TV watching to get caught up.

I made sure never to be without HBO again . . .

Love the DIY belt and all the swirly purples today! I still love SATC! For a while there it got a little too ubiquitous, but I'm still into it!

I have a dress very similar to the one you're wearing! I haven't worn it yet on the blog...perhaps I'll bring it out friday! You look lovely!

Ooh! your scarf is so pretty! And I love SATC too! I love watching just to see what they are all going to wear. That show is just so amazing! :)

I love the black bottom on that dress. It makes it look like a mini but is still work appropriate.

So cute, I heart the print on that dress :) Looks great with that scarf.
