mydearwatson: rose nylund is my homegirl (thrift)

8/13/12

rose nylund is my homegirl (thrift)

as i was taking these photos for this post brian walked into the room and asked,

"what's with the thinking face?"

to which i of course replied,

"i'm trying to figure out if this blouse is more rose nylund or sophia petrillo".

::blank stare::

to which i of course continued,

"i mean, the print is so rose, but the cut is very sofia."

::crickets::

"either way, i am definitely calling this my golden girls blouse"

.....

to which he finally replied,

"is this conversation seriously happening?"

::blouse:: thrifted ::layered necklaces:: gifted from daddy

::coloured skinnies & pocket cardi:: reitmans

but because i am not a fifty five year old woman living in miami i chose to wear it with some teal coloured skinnies and a rust coloured cardigan. (although, i feel like blanche could have rocked some teal skinnies really well. lady had gams.)

Hmm well my phone wouldn't publish my original comments so here is take 3! Love your whole outfit! And that shirt is a bargain and a fab colour/pattern. I could see blanche wearing the skinnies - blanche had style. God I miss that show. And I really enjoy your conversations with Brian - I can just picture him rolling his eyes at you and telling Lola you are bonkers.

i don't even attempt to accomplish much more than reading and picture taking using my phone. everthing else much get saved for the proper keypad. so i feel your frustration. grrr!

and it is usually me asking lola why daddy is such a boring eyerolly person, reinforcing the fact that i am bonkers. ;)

Hahaha, too funny :) Teal skinnies would be perfect with that top, and I'm pretty sure Blanche would have rocked it too (though Sophia would have probably called her out for being a hussy!)

thank you! a few years ago i would have never thought to pair four different colours together like that but now i feel so much braver and it pays off.
