Not only does the title of this post aptly describe this little outfit I’m working with but it also describes my weekend…short but sweet. It never seems like it's enough but I try to make the best out of my weekends no matter what. This past weekend I hung out with my little princess and any time with her, especially one on one is always the sweetest (my man child didn’t tag along b/c he has more important things to do than hang with his mom and sis *rolls eyes*)! On Saturday, the Princess and I did some very necessary shopping, we rented some movies and had some bad/good Chinese food while watching (that was awesome). On Sunday I had brunch in Philly with a group of fab ladies that I’ll be going to Italy with in October (can NOT wait for that trip) and then we were off to a BBQ in NJ on Sunday with some of my absolute favorite girls. The food was delicious and the company was irreplaceable. I love those ladies. Lots of laughter, good times, and sweetness. :-)
Anywho, is there anything sweeter than hot pink, red, pleats and polkadots all mashed together in one outfit? I think not!! I initially was just gonna throw a white tank on with this but figured to go with red instead to make things extra sweet and a little unexpected. Aside from Valentine’s day décor, we’ve been told that red and pink shouldn’t be mixed together but I actually think it’s a cute and sweet combination. Of course you honeeyz know that I like breaking rules just for the sake of breaking rules! :-) I paired the shorts and tanks with a new favorite, my strappy black snake skin sandal with corkscrew heels...the icing on the sweet cake!
FUN FACT: The striped blazer is actually my daughter’s. I bought it for her from Marshall’s this past fall and she was sweet enough to let momma borrow it. Don't you just love her?? The blazer fit in perfectly with the hot pink lining and contrasting stripes. And Im kinda loving the fact that we can fit some of the same things, of course that’s until she starts trying to wear my heels. :-)
