Goofy Pics: OOTD + The Fashionistas in the Next Cubicle

In order to make it to work on time I have to leave my house at 7:30.  This morning, I woke up at 7:00... aaaaahhhh.  Fortunately, the corporate fashion culture at my job is very laid back.  Jeans are more than welcome, and I take full advantage of that, especially on those mornings when my biological clock fat ils me (I haven't used an alarm in a while now! I wake up at 6 every day...even on the weekends!)  Today's outfit is kinda boring, but do LOVE the shoes, which I've had for at least 9 years. I got these cute blush Enzo Angiolini sling-back pumps on sale at Macy's for about $20 at one of their infamous 65% with an additional 40% off sales.  They are just instant classics! They have a very sweet vintage look to them and they are the perfect shade of blush.

What I'm Wearing...
~ Blush top from H&M
~ Silence + Noise vest, purchased at Urban Oufitters
~ Enzo Angiolini sling-back pump
~ Forever 21 necklace
~ Pearl studs from JC Penney
~ LOFT clutch
(you will notice that I don't change purses during the week #Lazy..LOL)

The Fashionistas in the Next Cubicle...

Do you ever see people on the street looking fabulous and get the urge to stop them in their tracks and ask to snap a picture... oh, that's just me? Well I get that urge all the time, but you can't do that sort of thing without looking like a psycho! Lol! (btw, my fiance' says I'm an undercover lesbian because of all my girl crushes...whatever! I like beautiful people) Since I can't stop strangers on the street, I harass my friends and co-workers instead.  I tell them its not my fault they're so fabulous!!!

Meet Emily and Alison... the Fashionistas in the Next Cubicle...

Emily is the queen of fabulous accessories an she actually moonlights as a jewelry designer... maybe she'll let me showcase some of her stuff one day *wink wink*  She actually scours thrift shops and gem fairs looking for unusual trinkets and stones inspiring some truly unique and beautiful pieces.  I'm totally bummed that you can't see her necklace in the first picture below.  It's a stunning necklace fashioned out of an old keychain.  I'll have to try to snap a picture next time she wears it.  What you can see in the picture is her beautiful scarf. I LOVE the colors.  In the second picture Emily is rockin a gorgeous pair of vintage earrings she picked up on an antique shopping weekend.  I was lusting after them, so I decided to take a pic.

Now meet Alison.  I just love her eclectic style! She is not afraid to take risks and she always looks fabulous!  She also has oh-so-pretty big, bouncy, gorgeous curly hair.

What She's Wearing
~ Top purchased at the Santee Alley a.k.a "the alley" located right in the heart of LA's garment district.
~ black tights purchased at Target
~ shoes purchased at Macy's
~ Ring on right hand is from Target.
~ Vintage ring on left hand was passed down from Alison's grandmother
~ Vintage charm bracelet and necklace passed down from Alison's mom.  The charms on the bracelet are from all over Europe! Don't you just love heirlooms???
