I almost didn't wear this outfit today, even though I was already wearing it, because it felt too autumnal. Then I decided not to be silly any wore it anyway. I think it works for summer too, yes?

Tonight I'm going to drink many margaritas and eat lots of cheese (burrito? fajitas? nachos? still undecided...) with some friends (and brothers).
On a completely unrelated (and a bit of a downer--sorry!) note, I just wanted to briefly touch on something that is really troubling to me. I stumbled upon this article while looking through the TV Guide online for movies to watch last night, and it really disturbed me. Now, I'm as guilty as anyone for getting inexplicably sucked in to the vortex of reality television, and I'm ashamed to admit that I did watch a lot more of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills than anyone in their right mind should be able to withstand (okay, mostly because Camille Grammar's painfully pathetic delusion was fascinating to watch). Now, we have no way of knowing whether or not such a tragedy would have occurred regardless of Bravo's influence on (and interference in) the lives of the Armstrong family, but the fact of the matter is that these are people's REAL LIVES that we are toying with here. And I'm sure that Russell Armstrong was a lot less enthused about the prospect of being involved in this vanity project than his wife was, which made it only worse as she went and proceeded to broadcast their marital problems on national television (and subsequently file for divorce) and cry about what a failure of a man/husband he was. There is only so much anyone can take. I'm just pretty disgusted with the state of the world in general right now, and this was the tipping point. What do you think? Is there any way to stop networks like Bravo from enabling the destruction of people's lives while the world watches? Is there any way to get viewers to stop watching this parade of melodramatic filth? I for one will no longer be watching any of the Real Housewives shows, regardless of how rainy and cold it is on future Sunday afternoons.
Your style is very cute and wonderful ! You are so pretty ! great tastes , I love them.
ReplyDeleteThis dress is really cute, I love it with the brown belt and shoes, and those knee highs are sooo cute. I really love this, it is a fall look that works in summer still!
ReplyDeleteI try not to watch those shows, but sometimes you get sucked in. That's so sad that he committed suicide as a result, these are peoples lives!

Bravo does has some fault in this tragedy but you have to look at the people themselves too. Theses people willingly allow cameras to follow their lives and they have to know (as reality television has been around for awhile now) the consequences of their actions. It was my understanding that this man also had a lot of financial troubles and I am sure that had a lot to do with this horrific end result.
ReplyDeleteI love that hair clip so much! I think it'd be perfect for fall because of the pretty fall colors in it. Cute socks too. I can't wait for the weather to cool down so I can wear some socks!
