Love Me Tender...

I'm not really feeling bright pink or red for Valentine's this year. I'm going through a phase of loving muted peaches and nude-pinks (is that a color?). Add some black and 'voila' -- a soft & tough combination that is perfect for V-Day, if you ask me. I was also going to do a budget-friendly version of this extravagant ensemble (which, combined, would cost more than my car), but it is just so perfect that I can't bear to even try...

it's a really sweet outfit... I can see that you really like to celebrate Valentine's Day, don't you? :-)

it'd be perfect if you posted a picture of your "real" look based on your items!

will you?

kisses and positive energy from Barcelona!

I love this! It's way better than the typical Valentine's Day outfits and so romantic. The necklace may be my favorite part...

Dugout Daisy said...

I love the outfit! Times like this I wish I had the money to buy those things as well. :)

Oh, and I tagged you in my newest post!

An ah-mazing ensemble, not too cute-sy, but gorgeous.

Wow! Thinking of Valentine's already?! Must have a big one planned ;) Last Valentine's me and the boy sat on our behinds for two hours at an early bird buffet! Romance!

Yes, No. 6, that's definitely a nude pink! I've been looking for a name for that colour!

Cris -- I will try to do that! Thanks for the suggestion.

Michelle-- I totally love the necklcae, too. A watch and a necklce in one -- too cute!

Daisy -- Thanks! I will do these ASAP ;)

{Tara} said...

milla -- thank you dear; I definitely don't like cutes-y!

ana -- the funny thing is, I don't have anything planned for V-Day (yet). I just love holidays and fantasy-consumerism, LOL!

sexy pedestrian -- there you go! It is now officially dubbed!

you know how i love the sweet-tough! it's like "oh, thanks for the compliment, yes, i thought i was looking pretty good, too...psst, i'll pull a switchblade out of my clutch and fuckin' shank you if you come any closer!" wink, smile, southern accent, laugh, hand gesture...

spring -- OMG, I wish I were tough enough to carry a shank. Perhaps the threat alone of shanking someone is enough to categorize me as a bad-ass...which is all I've ever really wanted to be.
