Happy Friday!
I am tired this morning - woke up at 4:30 - dear son is off on a school trip to Boston and was leaving early - watch out for him Merry Wife!
Thought I would share another little gem that has been added to my wardrobe this fall.
Sometimes, it is the little accessories that can just bring out the best in our current clothing.
So when I was shopping a few weeks ago and I came across a half slip with the most beautiful trim, I knew I could do a lot with it!
The ivory slip is lovely - I would even consider wearing it on its own in the summer with a tee.

And below you can see it underneath a lovely navy woolen skirt (the Marc Cain that I am wearing to death this fall and which I assume will be worn lots in the winter as well), it adds a touch of whimsy and fun:
A close-up of the Vera Moda blouse I am wearing underneath:
Sometimes, it's these little touches that just make all the difference!
Not sure if any of you saw the amazing popbacks on JCrew this a.m. - there is a ton of old school stuff! I actually scored a silk organza skirt in shell pink from several years ago that I had always loved but had missed at the time for a song. Worth checking it out to see if there is anything there for you...
Do any of you wear embellished slips? This is my first one, and I love it!
In honour of my topic of the day, let's make a Fairy Slip cocktail, shall we?
Luckily for me, I already believe in fairies, but since I have all of these ingredients, I think I will give this a go!
Happy Friday and Stay Safe Out There!

Luckily for me, I already believe in fairies, but since I have all of these ingredients, I think I will give this a go!
