I could not, for the life of me, manage to get dressed last night before going out. Usually I don't require much time to get gussied up for the evening, and when I have a plan to meet someone, I'm out the door on time. Even after delaying dinner with my sister, I just could not find an outfit that satisfied me. I felt like a cartoon character as I scurried around my room, the mountain of rejected garments growing larger and larger on my bed. Funny that in that last-minute crunch, I did not fall back on a trusty favorite or throw on something simple and understated. No, I wore a sequin vest. Makes a lot of sense.

Well, I'd say it worked out pretty nicely for ya.
Just stumbled upon your blog and I quite like your casual, no-fuss style. You have great hair too!
I really like the combination you came up with! I often suffer from the same dissatisfaction when trying to get dressed. (I have a really poor collection of fall back items.)
I've been following your blog for a short while, but I really like your style in general--very inspiring!
Love the sequins!!!!!!
