Obviously, sickness is not going to stop a blog addict like me forever. This is when forgotten photos from a camera come into play when you are too sick to pose and have pictures taken.
I wore this outfit to work last week. Just can't deny that a pencil skirt (of course with a slit for walking/sitting convenience) is one of the greatest fashion inventions ever in my opinion. It is sophisticated, sexy and mature. It flattens certain body types, makes women look powerful, yet brings out that feminism/sex appeal in you.


This pic has nothing to do with my outfit above but I just can't wait for the weather to get cooler to where I can wear a tweed jacket and a glamorous (faux) fur jacket again. That fur jacket only got worn once or twice each year.

Last but not least, I want to do a quick shout out for one of my long lost bloggy friends. I have noticed that some of you found a nice little friendship network via bloggers whom I list or leave comments on my little blog. That is awesome, keep expanding that friendship ring :)
Collette of "StatementsinFashion.net" has recently returned to the blogsphere. I knew Collette since my early days of blogging. We became closer when I did a small blog makeover for her. Even though I wanted to pinch her for wanting changes after changes, I totally heart this lady up to these days. I knew I was not up for a challenge of launching a blog design business at that time. I was glad we did a test :)
She has such unique, bold and awesome sense of style, and her fave store is Forever21. If you wanna know the meaning behind that dragonfly on her blog, read it :) As a person, she is gorgeous, silly and beyond cool. I sure missed seeing her blog in the last few months. So excited this sexy cougar back on da blog!!!!!!
Im coveting that luxurious looking tweed jacket of yours. It's very classy.
ReplyDeleteYes, you did notice the little friendship network. well Nelah, it's hard not to like the people that you tend like because generally, the people that you like are nice like you. Erm...this is not meant to be another riddle but I seem to have problems explaining myself in the last few days (must be a stroke).
Will visit Collette soon after I finish back reading your old (older) posts which I had missed months ago.
Hey, aren't you meant to be resting??!! Go and lie down.
You know how I discovered your blog??? It was through Melissa from A working Mom's closet. She had your name up for blog design...that was how I found you! Now I remember and I am so glad to have discovered this blog, I'll definitely have to visit Collette soon! I also thank you for bringing squeeze the pug over to my blog, she noted that she came across my name here ;) Thank you!
ReplyDeletegorgeous! fantastic post!

Hey Nelah, first of all that is a one hot outfit. Very classy with a splash of sexy thrown in, I love pencil skirts as well, especially when i'm feeling slightly bloated. And as long as we are on the top of blogger networking, i remember finding your blog through Lisa from Cocobella Ballerina. She was raving about your Chanel earrings and i hopped on over to your blog and so thankful I did. I also agree with Squeeze the Pug who mentioned that you tend to be drawn to people like you. Like the saying goes, if you want to find out more about someone check out their friends. I've met a lot of blogger friends from your blog list. They're so sweet like you :)
ReplyDeleteHey Nelah Baby! Girl pencil skirts will never go out of style. They are classic and you are wearing that skirt girl. I love your handbag also!!! Nelah, your middle name must be TEASE!!! No you didn't leave us hanging showing that awesome tweed jacket! Bessie does the same thing! You learned that from her huh? Just dangle it in front of us. I am going to remind you everyday about that tweed jacket until you showcase it. HAHAHA Okay, going to check out your awesome bloggie friend!!! ((HUG)) Get better! Lots of rest! >.<
