Yellow and Rose


Okay, so these tights aren't rose, they're maroon, but the outfit made me think of that James Taylor song (listen above). Anyone else love James Taylor?! I like such random music, I hardly like any of the new artists out there. Give me The Beatles, The Eagles, James Taylor, Billy Joel, Kenny Loggins or classic Disney movie soundtracks (HP, LotR & Narnia soundtracks too) any day!

Now on to the outfit.  This is my 4th time wearing my Valentino jacket from The Outnet's $2 birthday sale. So that's 50 cents per wear, totally worth it! It is a bit dressy to wear often but I do want to make sure I keep wearing it every once in a while.  This time I paired it with one of the Marc by Marc Jacobs dresses I got on eBay (Anne Hathaway has it in blue ;) ) The weather this day (Wednesday) was SO perfect, it was warm, but not hot and the sun was wonderful. And I got to enjoy the amazing smell of Fall, its so crisp, I could breathe it in all day.

Jacket: Valentino via The Outnet birthday sale $2, Dress: Marc by Marc Jacobs (eBay) $27, Flats: vanEli (DSW) gift,Watch: Michael Kors, Purse: Marc by Marc Jacobs

    Oooh. Fall with a spring edge! I like. Still bitter about the Outnet sale I missed, by the way. Just so you know.

    LotR soundtracks FTW.

    I love that you are getting more use out of the jacket, and the weather almost all week was so great, lets hope the predicted rain for this week is wrong.
