First, was this cute, funky little dress (Kintamani by Wind River) and scarf that my husband bought me. The fact that he actually purchased something a) all by himself, b) that I love and c) fits me perfectly was strange enough. But, I rarely, if ever wear red. (I'm strictly a blue, black or gray and sometimes brown kind of gal.) Then, my daughter comes up with the red necklace (seen above), not knowing the red dress and scarf had been selected. Mildly weird, right? Then, I open the gift sent from my sister....
and my mind was officially blown. (Scarf from Gap.) You think they're trying to tell me to put a little pizazz into my wardrobe? Yeah, I think so, too. Point taken, family.

Red is the color of the season. That's what Santa wears. ROCK that RED. And Happy BELATED Birthday.
Thanks, Terre. Now that you mention it, Santa and I have a lot more in common than we used to (i.e. the white-haired-with-a-tummy club). If it's good enough for him....
So pretty. Wear it all in good health.
