Black Velvet, Red Lips, and a Happy Thanksgiving!

November 21, 2012

 

This dress is one of those few pieces that I have found that I almost wanted to (selfishly) keep for myself.  How could I say ‘no’ to black crushed velvet and an empire waist?! Add red lips and you’re done!

 

Simplicity is sometimes the most luxurious.

I am thankful for this beautiful dress, my red lipstick, some gorgeous weather, the vibrant colors that make up a California winter, lots of iced coffee, and a big hunk of pecan pie with whip cream tomorrow!
For everyone here in the good ol’ U S of A: Happy Thanksgiving! (Tomorrow that is!)
