Feeling Nautical

Last evening, we celebrated my father's birthday with sushi!  I wore a navy and white striped dress with a chiffon skirt that had a rather nautical feel to, I thought.  I paired it with red velvet pumps and Kate Moss-inspired makeup that I saw in a Glamour magazine.

The dress came from the Petite collection from ASOS and the shoes are by Qupid.  Aren't they awesome?!  I've always wanted a pair of good red shoes...brings David Bowie's "Let's Dance" to mind, don't you agree?

Dark, corner-smokey eye and bright pink lip.  I fully understand that no amount of makeup will transform me into the lovely Miss Moss, but I really liked this look and went about creating my own version of it. :)

Hope everyone's having a great Monday so far!  Goodnight!

Hugs,
Cat

A Bow-rific Afternoon

Yesterday was one of the rare weekdays that my husband and I had the day off together.  We decided to celebrate by having a romantic, waterfront dinner at one of San Francisco's most famous oyster bars, The Hog Island Oyster Company.

Since the weather was sunny and warm (for a change) it was the perfect opportunity to show off my Bow of Beauty wide-brimmed hat from Ruche that I've been dying to wear!  I felt so chic on the promenade with my charming chapeau. :D

Daisy the doggie wants to be a part of the shoot too! LOL!

Nothing beats a great pair of pumps.  These nude velveteen hidden-platform pumps are by a cheap-o company called Qupid.  They cost about $30, but look like a million bucks.  Nude pumps are a must-have for any girl's wardrobe and not only are these pretty, but they're also comfy for the heel height!
