A Date with a Magpie

Over a span of 31 days, I'm home for just 15.
Getting a lot of experience packing, see thisthis and this;
I seem to be stuck in a rut with navy for business travel.
Husby and I tend to be homebodies.
But on this day we went to a baseball game.
Followed by dinner not made by moi.
Eager to be breaking out, do you think I over did it by piling on
a sequin tee and mirror metallic shoes with WMM endorsed
fancy pants that are the love child of Liberace and Marie Antoinette?

  1. How are your shoes holding up with wear? Is the mirror metallic fading? Super easy to scratch? I love this outfit.

    1. Hi gigi, thanks! I've worn these shoes a ton and think the mirror meetallic finish is holding up really well but I will do a more detailed review of the shoes with some close-up pics so you can judge for yourself. ;)

  5. I'm right there with you TR, I'm home less than 2 weeks in June but thankfully it is all on the continent so no jet lag. I'm still stuck on navy and neutrals for business travel but I have to go with what works. Hope you had a great date night with your husband.

    1. LOL about thinking of me when you ordered the sequin tee. I had not really considered it but seeing how cute it is on you, will have to rethink that. ;)

    1. Thanks, Louise. I've heard some find these shoes uncomfortable but I must have been lucky, mine were comfy out of the box.

  8. You didn't overdo it at all - I love this outfit! When you're traveling a lot, keeping it streamlined with your wardrobe is one less thing to stress about! I just purchased the metallic silver Everly pumps and am excited to wear them.

    1. Keeping it simple and sticking to what you know will work is a huge help when traveling a lot, there are too many things to remember already.

      I'm coming over to see your new silver shoes!
