Hoot! Hoot!

Eloquii Riding Cardigan / Old Navy T / Owl Rhinestone Pendant & Earrings / Ray-Ban Wayfarer XL

I'm totally obsessed with these cardigans. You'll be seeing a lot of them into Spring. They're so soft. And have pockets. I bought 2 initially (black, camel) , and then they went on sale for $25 and I bought three more (pink, fuschia, and teal). See an outfit with the black version here). As you can tell, I've been in a pink mood the last couple of weeks, as evidenced by my last 2 outfit posts. I'll try to think up an outfit without pink soon.

The outfit started with this whimsical owl pendant. I stole it from my Mom's and this was my starting point for the whole outfit.

Frye Boots

When I went out that evening this is the new satchel I wore. It's from Target and was on super clearance in the store but also online. I still definitely want one of the original Cambridge Satchel Company ones (available at ModCloth), but this will do in a pinch until I'm ready to invest.

What I Wore: East Bay Evening

Gap Shirt, Old Navy Plus Dark Wash Jeggings

Yesterday afternoon, I headed down to the East Bay (Berkeley and Emeryville) to catch up with my friend from my year in France, Katie. You can see us in the Côte d'Azur here. She was kind enough to take a picture of me in front of my old apartment (which happens to be for rent).

Since I was driving from 95 degree Davis to 65 degree Berkeley, I could wear boots and pants! This March I ordered my first pair of Frye boots. One of my personal (shopping) goals working for Gap Inc. was to get a deal on a pair of Fryes from Piperlime. This was a bit of a challenge since the pair I wanted were $218 (beyond my general shoe budget) and are mostly excluded from all our promotions. This March, however, during Give & Get (a thrice annually 30% off Friends and Family charity event sale extravaganza), they were not excluded! As for the rest my outfit, when it got chilly in the evening, I added a light denim jacket and a navy horizontal striped scarf. You know me and stripes this season.

Before driving down to the Bay for the evening,  I spent the afternoon on the couch (with my Mom of course) watching Derek Jeter smash his way to his 3,000th hit. Said hit was of course a home run, and he went an unbelievable 5-for-5 at the plate, and basically single handedly won the game. I was so excited that I decided to break out my Yankee cap pendant (seen quite tiny above, larger below). Even if you don't like the Yankees, or don't care about baseball, you should read the article. It was a magical day.

Style Icon: Nancy Botwin

Weeds is back with its seventh season! While one can debate the merits of the show, the fact that Mary-Louise Parker as Nancy Botwin is gorgeous, sexy, and stylish is beyond question. Today, to get ready for the new season, I've collected some promo images from previous seasons. I also pair the pics with a few dresses and some lovely lingerie inspired by Nancy, and of course, the green theme of the show.
