Friday… Stripes and Silk

001 collage (1)

Ahhhh……its Friday.  Finally.  Yes, it’s been a long week for me but the day of redemption is finally here.  I’m ready to jump heels first into the weekend!

Today’s outfit features my new fave top by Bisou Bisou.

It’s a very versatile, black and white, stretchy top I bought recently at JC Penney.  The most wonderful aspect of the top is its cool, abstractly cut bottom but as the top is tucked in today, I’ll have to feature that in a future post.

I’m actually a little ashamed of wearing the top again today as I wore it last week and weekend – once with a skirt and once with jeans.  It just looks so great with everything that I keep finding different ways to style it.  (I know…I’ll stop whining). 🙂

Paired with the top is a beautiful, Kate Spade, silk, fuchsia skirt.  I battled to win this skirt on eBAY and I’m so thankful I won!  From its delicate detailing to its flaming fuchsia hue, it’s a show stopper.

Psssttt….Also, don’t forget the Sarah Jessica Parker Collection debuts today at Nordstrom….I’m planning on some online shopping this evening.  Online “window shopping” at least…

I was told today that I looked very Parisian and I guess that was the look for which I was going.  I’m still suffering from a case of supreme jealousy as a friend of mine is going to Paris and I’m…not.

But…zut alors…c’est dommage as my French teacher used to say and so when one can’t GO to Paris, one DRESSES as if she’s going to Paris!

I also needed an outfit to wear with my new Kate Spade clutch purse and this one fit the bill!

I actually accidentally wore a lot of Kate Spade today.  As in…Kate Spade shoes, necklace, clutch, watch and earrings.  I didn’t realize I was becoming so “Kate” until I started my post and was labeling my pictures.  Still…there are worse things!

Well…au revoir mes amies!  Cortneybre…
