Technicolored

{Aeropostale sweater, wet seal sheer top, Trina Trunk scarf, bubblegum denim, Steve Madden booties}

Wore this fun little outfit on a wine tasting trip to Napa- figured if spilled any wine on me it would eventually blend in!  No, just kidding, I really just threw it together right before I was scrambling out the door.  It started with the purple sheer top and jeans, and then I just kept adding.  Before I knew it I had turned into the bag lady on the corner with a better jewelry selection- and I liked it!  The Navajo print on the cardigan and the contrasting sharp shades on the scarf made me giddy, I felt like a tribal rock-star all day- gotta love mixing and mis-matching!

    Hi, Carlina! What a fun ensemble and excursion! U're so lucky u live close to Napa! I bet it's gorgeous out there right now especially with the mustards blooming. Again, so sorry for not visiting your blog, lately! Life has been a bit hectic, but I'm hoping I can get into the swing of blogging again soon:) I have missed ur blog! The sheer peach dress is actually from Free People (Feb catalog). I found it here. It's gorgeous! Are you getting it??:)

    Have a great week! -AB
