Wearing: Ethereal

Every once in a while,

a day comes along when you feel

life is pretty close to perfect,

and it has absolutely nothing to do

with what you're wearing or

how your life is progressing at that point.

It's almost an unexplainable state-of-mind...

that feeling of euphoria a girl gets

simply to be alive in those moments.

I had one of those days.

I'm not sure if it was the four

Coconut White Chocolate Mochas that

I consumed in a 24-hour period

or the fact the sun was shining the entire day

after three weeks of non-stop rain,

but whatever it was...I had that feeling.

And just for a moment,

I even believed I'd actually make it through

the Shopping Ban/Shop Your Closet Challenge

that I signed on for over at Anthroholic this morning!

(Anthropologie Ethereal blouse and Enchanted Eyes belt, thrifted maxi skirt, Target Presta Wedges)

I've received a boat-load of questions about

what products I use for my hair and I've been

trying to answer those one email at a time,

but I got a message from one of you lovely ladies the other day and

when I opened it to reply back, the message literally disappeared.

If you asked and didn't get a reply from me, sorry about that...

I use the Generic brand for

Biolage Gelee and Paul Mitchell Freeze and Shine.

Next week, I'm taking the entire week to post a Making It Work series of outfits

based entirely on the color scheme below.

Putting outfits together based on certain color

combinations is something I do all the time,

so I figured now would be a good as time as any

to share the process with you...especially considering

the "shop your closet" thing and all.

Happy Mother's Day to all the

the fabulous Mommies out there!
