night owl.
So after a crazy week of exams. I had to escape into the night...
Well not exactly. More like going to the movies, downing the largest popcorn they had, and hopping into bed at 11. I am a true grandma at heart. I promise you.
The miu miu has not left my side since it arrived. I even stashed my water bottle in one of the zipper compartments (love these) and a towel in the next, and skipped with glee to Pilate's.
So I have never worn or owned a pair of leggings before. crazy? But I am seeing them everywhere, and every time I do I think they look fabulous. absolutely fabulous. Especially the matte aa's.
I might just be lured in...

The bag and your red nails provide a nice pop! in your outfit.

Ashleigh said...

Laurel said...

OI OI! BFF, YOU = HOT.

I love that blazer with red nails, so hot. I totally forgot to ask you about the Miu Miu in my email! I need that bag, the color is so perfect for fall - wantwantwant!

Lub you, bb. You look absolutely stunning!!

Dear Lisa,

By the way, before I get on the rambling train (which frequent a lot! :P) I have a question I've been meaning to ask since I first visited your blog (my memory isn't that bad, I just blame the fact that your entries are so good that by the time I ever get to commenting, I forget all about my question... until now... cause I wrote myself a note haha): The "Leese" part of your blog title, is that like a nickname short for Lisa? I imagine if you shortened Lisa and spelled it "Lis" then people would probably sound it out "lis" like the beginning of the word "list" and not like "Leese" as in short for Lisa. At least that's what I'm guessing, but please could you please tell me if I'm wrong? :P

Anyway, now to your blog entry:

I love this look, I'd call it Corporate Rebel... the blazer gives me kind of a business vibe, except your version is like the runway version. Like the girl who just said "no!" to the boring business suit and paired her gray blazer with her favorite worn in jeans, and a killer pair of heels and bag! :D

Am I making any sense? Hope you sort of kind of get what I was trying to say there! :P

By the way, I looked up "inspiring" and "inspire" in the thesaurus and they had no suggestion! Well, guess you're just stuck with me saying, "inspiring" after all! :D

And to the rest of your comment: awww... you make my heart melt! Luckily that's just a figure of speech or else after all your kind words, I would have died a long time ago from a melted heart. :P

And aw, shucks, (to recycle a word from like the 80's I think), I seriously doubt that was the best blog post ever (an impossible feat really ;)) but I am ever so flattered and touched that you could even think it's is!

And aw, Apartheid is awful. I'm not going to lie, I actually had to look up "Apartheid" in the dictionary, but I'm glad I could be aware of it now thanks to you. Even though hearing of awful things isn't exactly to enjoy, it does bring awareness and shed light on things that need to be stopped!

Anyway hope you're Saturday has been lovely! (I know you're a good bit ahead of us in time, so it's already probably late on Saturday... I think...) God bless you! :)

xoxo,
S-C
