Hey there lovebugs. I'm so sorry I missed you all yesterday. As you know I had surgery on my foot yesterday morning and I was in a sedated sleep for the rest of the day. Everything went very well and now it's just about getting rest and not walking, like at all. So I would like you to know that I hopped (yes jumped up and down on one foot) from my 5th floor apartment down to the 2nd floor free wifi library just to give you lovely lovely beauties a post. Dedication.
Don't forget to send me some recipes for tomorrow Friday Foodday, I couldn't do it with out you!
Today I'm going to talk about a trend that I really am warming up to: leather and tweed. Weird combo but in the appropriate setting I think it looks super chic.

ShapeFX, control tweed pants, $29!!!!!!!!!!
I'm not much for highwaisted pants because, well the pooch situation. But these pants come with built-in tummy, rear, and hip liner that slims, slims, and slims.

LOFT, Shiri OTK Boot, $109 (use code GOFORIT for an extra 30% off)
The elusive OTK boot. I like this one for its rounded tow and thicker heels making it more appropriate for daytime.
