I got in Friday morning, September 7th at 3:15am and finally made it to bed by 4:00am. Can you believe I woke up before my 7:00am alarm? Ouch!! So I started my day by responding to a couple emails.......
I needed an outfit that was going to help lift this ‘tired’ cloud that was looming over my head – this is what I came up with - and got some great responses! 
Ms. Aikasha is wearing a Transit navy blue polyester slip dress, Vera Wang brown leather ankle wrap/peep toe booties, and Tous leopard print ponyhair/brown leather bag. Accessories include an armful of coordinating bangles, large mesh hoop earring, turquoise necklace, and a gorgeous featherweight silk orange & brown tie-dyed oversize scarf. The outfit was really all about the scarf!!
Tip: Whats Sexy?  Clothes that imitate lingerie (like this slip dress)…….What’s Not so Sexy? – wearing lingerie as clothes. Of course there are exceptions to every rule – but I think underwear and sleepwear construction/manufacturing is what differentiates it from clothing.
Note: As I was getting dressed this morning, my granddaughter said “Grandma – you’re wearing a slip to work?....and that’s it??”. I was tickled that she even knew what a slip was – then again, she is my granddaughter!!

Tip: I love scarves. they can take even the most basic outfit to the next level. I will throw on a scraf in a mad minute and wont think twice!! I find silk scarves to be most versatile - they're not as bulky and you can wrap them in various ways - even tie a "tie" which looks great with t-shirt and jeans or with a cotton button down.
