slip times 2.


jacket. h & m. slip. Woolies. shoes. nine west
lace-y slip. I found this cheap-o slip at the Woolies quality sale and could not pass it up. It was simple. lace trimmed. and is a beautiful blush shade and for some reason I just felt drawn to it, so much so that this was probably my 5Th time checking it out to see if I REALLY wanted it. YUP- I did.
Of course its meant for sleeping in...BUT I thought it would be perfect with tights ( I would never wear this tight less. never.) + my black jacket.
My camera was laid to rest tonight as it *slipped* out of *someones* hands while the zoom was out...(!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) therefore I was in a mournful mood all afternoon. I used an old replacement camera for these pics, so the pictures were a little wacky. BUT my mood was instantly brightened because I bought a new one already, with a few added mega pixels. YAY. So a weekend full of ups and downs.

  20. oh, so so lovely! i've taken to wearing lace slips as outfits too recently. underwear-as-outerwear, or something like that.

    thank you soo much for the nyc tips! i am so excited about it (but a little worried I won't want to leave). that's amazing you did an internship there - what sort of place did you intern in? (if you don't mind me asking)

    boat cruise sounds good, think i might also do one of those uber-touristy bus tours on the first day to help me get my bearings!
