Hot Pink, Neon Green


I had been looking forward to Sunday afternoon all week. Brunch and Batman with my friends Najeema and Michele? YES, please. And then Najeema totally upped the ante - after sangria, she pulled out a bag out from under the table, saying, "Soooo I don't wear these anymore, do you two want them"? She then proceeded to dump the cutest clothes and lipsticks down on the table...  I snatched this silk blouse up before the sentence was even out of her mouth. Poor Michele didn't stand a chance! I've already planned 7 different ways to wear it - I predict you'll be seeing this little gem all over this blog. So thanks, Najeema - this is why I love swaps (and friends)!

(See another look from Najeema's hand-me-downs: a pink and blue leopard skirt!)

  8. Ah! So unfair! This is what happens when I go out of town? I miss out on clothes? You girls are no longer allowed to have brunch while I'm away on vacation. ;)

    I can't believe Najeema gave that baby up! Lucky for you, though, because it looks great on you!

    1. I have to tell you, I was surprised she let this go, as this color pink is her signature color. Wait til you see the skirt I picked up from her!
