A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Resturaunt

Hi All!
You know how I said I was kind of in a rut after being in mostly sweatpants for the last 2 weeks. Well, I am pretty sure I have had a break-through thanks to my friend Carol.

She sent me a link to a blog and wrote... I can so see you in this outfit, go check it out.
Guess what! 
She was so right. She knows me well!

It just so happens that husband and I were going out to dinner with her and her husband on Saturday night, so I busted out the ensemble!!!
Do you recognize the outfit?
It is from Jessica Quirk, What I Wore.
Click on the link to see the original.
I love everything about this outfit, I love it so much I am actually wearing it again today!
The sequins, the fur, the bling brooch paired with denim.
Brilliant idea!
Props to Jessica.
Funny side note: the fur scarf was a gift last year from the friend that suggested the outfit!
I guess I have to get used to taking indoor pictures again.
What a pain, you'd think it would be a snap with today's technology.
Have you ever seen an outfit and knew immediately you wanted to copy it?
How about this look? 
 Would you wear it?

sequin top-H&M
denim jacket-Levi
trousers-Express
fur scarf-gifted
wedges-Steve Madden
brooch-grandmother's
earrings-Belk
ring-Steinmart

I see outfits every day that I want to copy. And yes, I do it all the time. I would totally wear this outfit. It looks great on you. You look beautiful. I think it must have been this time last year that you and I became buddies because I remember all your photos being in front of your tree.

Does that mean it's our anniversary? mwah!

xoxo,
Tracy

You look fantastic in this outfit Brett! And yes, I know the feeling...taking indoor photos are not fun. I'll be forced to take indoor photos very soon as we're hitting single degree weather next month.

This is a perfect outfit for you! The neutrals and your sparkly shirt look great! I wish I could do this, but wide leg pants have never worked on me. I'm just too petite :(
