ten hut.

love red. can't wear red. not sure why. but it commands attention, and i've always loved black, white, and red. this blazer has a sort of denim look, so it isn't red-red. had it from the corporate, office-y days of dress codes and wearing suits. this blog has pushed me to incorporate the old with the new and i've worn so many things that would have otherwise gone to waste.
what has your blog done for you?

(blazer, express; leather shorts, uo)

Cute outfit! I also love your JS Dany's with it. My blog has taught me a lot about taking the time to take quality photos along with pacing myself with what I want to be published. usually sometimes I'm so quick with tweets, IMs, emails etc...but with blogging I like to take my time with each post, making sure it's close to exactly what I want to display.

You got the Jessica Simpsons! So jealous right now! Living in Europe can be a real pain in the ass sometimes, it took me 3 weeks and lots of taxes to get my Lita's (but they were worth it in the end) & getting these would be the same painful ride :( ..

Anyway, thx for the sweet comment! That ring is from Asos.com (on sale right now!) ..

Love,
Oh'

My blog has forced me to acknowledge that I never wear color. Now I make a conscious effort to buy and wear more color! It's been fun. : )

Normally, I wear muted colors -- black and brown -- and then I punch it up with a color somewhere. I love pairing red shoes with an all black outfit or a colorful scarf with a muted look. That way, you get the oomph factor of color without looking like a walking rainbow.

Your shoes are fantastic! It's definitely so that blogging inspires to re-use every item in your closet in different ways!

As an answer to your comment on my blog: I've looked it up on Google and cake balls are pretty much the same thing, though we tweeked the recipe a bit. I just used a fancier name for the same thing ;)
