An ordinary Wednesday outfit

I have seem to forgotten how much I absolutely love this skirt and how often I should be wearing it. The red is a great color and pairing it with neutrals seems to tone down the brightness a bit. Finally - an outfit worth blogging about!

Today I paired it with my new sweater from the Gap that I picked up for 17.00. When I asked the husband about it in store I asked him if it looked like a pretzel on the front, and he agreed. So I bought the sweater and instantly wanted a pretzel with cheese sauce. Oi. And underneath it is the Banana Republic jeweled collar blouse I bought after Christmas and this blouse has been frequently worn. The jewels on the collar are so subtle and I love pairing it under a cardigan or sweater.

Adorable Kate Spade phone case... Love the flowers!
I did get lots of compliments on the skirt at the office today so I figured I'd finally add something fashiony to the blog again.

      Thanks Lisa! ;) I should bring it to Germany! But then I may be hungry all the time... hahahaha.
      Well let me know your plans.. perhaps if we cross paths in an international city we can get some good food and catch up for a bit.
