Lychee Bus Stop

Hat: Vintage, Necklace: SewTrendy on Etsy, Thermal: Hanes, Dress: F21, Sweater: Thrift, Tights: Express,
 Boots: Vintage (Brazilian Riding Boots), Purse: Vintage, Nails: Same as previous post

I wore this the other day when my sister and I had a "South Pacific" themed night out.  We went to a Japanese steakhouse, where I thought my order of sablefish was some sort of swordfish.  The food smelled so good when it came out I decided not to say anything.  Also I was ashamed and did not want to reveal my culinary stupidity.  Miso-glazed sablefish is now a favorite dish.  It's full of Omega 3's and tastes like buttah.  I can't wait to try to re-create the recipe at home.  Then it was down the block to a seafood lounge, whatever that is.  Anyway, they had giant $6 lychee martinis and it wasn't even Happy Hour, so who cares exactly what a seafood lounge is?

Obviously, my sartorial choices did not match the theme since we were on foot and it was very cold out.  I was insistent on some sparkles, being that it was still pre-New Years' celebrations.  This shimmery pink dress with gold sparkle-flecks in the overlay was a great find.  I made it festive for winter with brown and cream accents. 

The little leather purse has red, brown, and purple Western designs etched into it and reminds me of something a Native American Medicine Woman would use to tote around all of her goodies.  It is the perfect size: just big enough for phone, keys, wallet and Rosebud Salve




Your Golden Girl,
