Saturday Morning Casual

The Weekend

Usually, I spend the weekend around the house.


So, naturally, it's very casual.  I love the look and casual feel of a kimono.


This, is not, a kimono.  It is a scarf that I tied (you can see the knots) and tucked into the neck of my workout top.


I have even ventured out in this and got a bunch of compliments!  Isn't it gorgeous!?


It's by the artist, Sigal Cohen Wolkowiez:
This scarf has a name: La Mancha
I liked it because it reminds me of the "evil eye" and we could all use a little help!
Check out all the beautiful products she has.


Enjoy your weekend and leave a comment if you please.  What do you wear when lounging around the house on a casual weekend?

What to Wear to Your Daughter's Graduation

Graduation Day

It's a BIG DEAL, sitting, squished between parents/grandparents, in the bleachers (comfortably?) for an hour and a half, taking pictures FOR POSTERITY, then going for a BIG meal ('cus...come on, you haven't eaten for the whole day, right?)


We made it!!!  That's her, on the left, horning in. ;)  First, let me say how proud I am of my straight A daughter, so excuse my puffy eyes, crying will do that.


Plain black sheath dress is so easy to accessorize to your personality (and all day comfortable).  I am using the column rule here with contrasting colors.  Black dress, contrasting color cardigan, which in this case is a sheer silk kimono.  Black sheath dress is old, I bought it a while back and hemmed it, but I see that it's time for a little longer length.  Little silk kimono is from Amazon.com...I swear...and inexpensive!  I was looking for a lightweight cover and looked online under "Kimono Cardigan" and a slew of choices popped up!!!  Shoes by Aldo. http://www.aldoshoes.com/us/en_US/women/sandals/high-heels/CATARINA/p/46384580-32


So Proud.
