Steal the Look for Less: Sarah Jessica Parker
I love Parker becasue of her style also how can you not love Carrie. The picture below (from style.com) is from the New York City Ballet Spring Gala. Parker is seen in: "an Elie Saab dress, L'Wren Scott jacket, and Alexander McQueen shoes, with a Leiber clutch and Fred Leighton jewels."

I love the stand out color of her shirt. Gives the outfit more of a pop. You to can get this look without going bankrupt.

You can steal this look by wearing a lace dress with a satin jacket over it, peep toe shoes, and a bright clutch bag. To change it up a bit you can do a satin cardigan or a satin button down t-shirt. For the clutch bag do something with a pattern, whether it is patch work, studds, or sequins. Stick with the peep toe shoes but you can change it up with a sequin peep toe or a satin peep toe. If you want to go for a bright color do something with silver or a metalic silver.
It's a great look for something formal like a wedding or something a little casual like a date or a night out at the ballet.

Did some laundry today and tonight will take the boy out to dinner to celebrate his graduation.
Also plan on stopping in the boutique by me to see what bags they have. I really want a new hand bag since I haven't bought one in a really long time, plus I want a new spring/summer bag.

Skirt: H&M
Shoes: No Name
Necklace: Laila Rowe; pearls- Forever21
This is my new favorite outfit. I always get compliments when I wear this skirt. I love this skirt even more since now it fits me even better. It's not as high on my waist like it use to be since I lost a lot of weight (finally losing my college weight!). I couldn't wear the shoes outside since they were SUPER cheap and are made super cheap that the strap that goes behind the ankle doesn't stay there. So, I wore sandals to work and wore these shoes around the office. I guess the no name did their job since someone asked me if they were Nine West shoes. I wish they were the Aldo ones that I have been eying forever!
Well, we almost made it through the week! Tomorrow is Friday, thank god!! Monday is my boyfriend's graduation from grad school! I'm super excited for him. Also, talking about losing weight I'm wearing the dress that I literally wore a year ago to my friends' wedding and it fits a lot looser then it use too! I even tried on the dress I wore to New Years Eve three years ago and it fits me (which it hasn't since....3 years ago!). Very exciting stuff for me.
Hope everyone has some great plans for the weekend! Really all I have planned is some cleaning, taking the boyfriend out to dinner on Saturday, waiting fr the boys family to come and taking them to dinner.
I created a set on Polyvore inspired by this bra and I thought I'd would share it here:
I think the bra is so sexy and has a rocker edge to it. I would wear something to showcase it like with a blazer or a little vest. Or even an open back cardigan, like the one above from Alexander Wang.
