It's just lunch...

Hey peeps!  Hope everyones weekend is going great! This OOTD is the debut of my new red skinnies, and the last hoorah for my leopard shoes (at least for a little while). I got the top from Target. I normally don't wear things with big pictures on them, but I loved the pic of Ms. Marilyn on the front. After I put the outfit on, I instantly wished my hair was more interesting. I will definitely be sporting a big curly "do" the next time I wear this top. I like how it all came together though.

Saturday, I went to lunch with two of my oldest & dearest friends. Love those ladies! I wanted to break out my red skinnies, but since we were only going to The Olive Garden, I thought they would be a bit much. So, I took to my Twitter buddies to help me out. I received quite a few responses saying that the outfit wouldn't be too much for Saturday lunch. What do you think??

Until next time...

(P.S., I didn't wear the outfit because it started snowing right after I got dressed. I wasn't about to wear my leopard babies out in that mess)

    I think it is a cute outfit. Personally, and this nothing racist, the black panther in me has something against black folks wearing pictures of just white people. I don't know what it is!!! There is this adorable dress at Eshakti that I want, but I can't get it because 1) Im on a spending freeze (LOL) 2) it doesn't have one black person in site in the pattern.

    So I just can't get past that with the outfit.. But if it were anyone else, say Pam Grier, I would totally dig the outfit!!

    Plus the skinnies fit you perfectly!!!

    Also, thanks for the comment on my blog. I totally understand what you're saying. But I just had to get those thoughts off my chest, considering my blog is a "Me" blog as well...

    Never think what you waer is "too much"... Especially on a day off from work, which is the only place I'd make exceptions...
    Wear what you lOve!

    You are so sweet with your comments. I was thinking you were never going to speak to me again because of my commen bout the Marilyn shirt. i was being real, but then after I wrote it I was wondering "was I being too real?". Anyway, thanks for the comment on my blog. I really appreciate it.
