scored this Jessica McClintock gold clutch at Century 21 for $24.
its so dainty it can barely fit my cell, a lipstick and my keys. surely it will be used for many a night out in the city when that's exactly all I will need.

and she was called yellow

i almost threw these Mango beauties out or donate them but all of a sudden I had an urge to wear them. that tends to happen a lot. I pull items out of a bag of clothes I'm sure I want to donate on a weekly basis.
chalk it up to my indecisiveness or just really wanting to prolong the life of a piece in my wardrobe. i feel as soon as I give it away or sell it...I find the perfect occasion to wear it! does anyone else have this fashion conundrum?
 


Trousers: Mango get something similar here and here | Top: Forever 21 tee
Shoes: BCBGeneration (Old) get similar here and here | Sunnies: D&G | Bag: BCBGeneration
Ring: Mango

it was the same conundrum with these shoes. just when i thought I'd give them up...I all of a sudden was loving the snake print and pointy toe again. i cannot become a clothes hoarder though! i'm really trying to stick to selling or donating pieces i havent worn in a year or so...with exception of extra special peices like this dress I wore for new years. see this outfit in video on my

how do you deal with getting rid of old clothing?

my presence is a gift

I'm super happy that the holidays are over. I do love the holiday season but it can wear you down. All the shopping, all the very crowded stores and Christmas music. It can all be very overwhelming.
I didn't buy too many gifts this year because I was kinda broke after spending a million dollars on my plane ticket home. My family didn't care though..my presence was gift enough ;-)


Outfit
Dress: Vintage Bob Mackie via Ebay
Boots: Jessica Simpson get a similar pair here
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff see it worn differently here
Sunnies: D&G
I thought this dress would be fitting for the season and the title of the post lol. I love the details on the vintage Bob Mackie dress. It's also very very warm! This is one of those dresses you can really only wear during the holiday season. I actually got to attend a great Bob Mackie Event last summer with the NYC Fashion Bloggers Meetup Group. I paired this dress with my Rebecaa Minkoff bag that I won during this post.
Its hard to believe the photos were taken just last week when the sun was shining and it wasn't 14 degrees outside...O_o
One more day to enter my GIVEAWAY for an awesome SWAGBAG HERE!!!!
