my outfit: how big is TOO big?

I happen to be dressing more like an adult lately... notice the earrings.. huh? huh? huh? Well I have a little confession... I am an adult. Not just a crazed mom. Ha!

My kids are with my dad for the week (hello, BLISS!) so I am doing all sorts of fun things like sleeping a full eight hours without interruptions (like, "I can't sleep" or "I can't find my blankie"), eating meals while the food is still hot and the beer is still cold (YES!), and making plans for going to the movie theatre with hubby (for Eclipse) and on my own (for SATC2) and (gasp!) dressing in outfits that make me feel like an adult again!

Take these earrings for instance... I can just galavant around the house in them without the fear of losing a lobe by an accidental yank.



Wearing one big bold accessory like these earrings put me in the mood for something simple and casual. I love a little ying and yang in my outfits. This oversized boyfriend shirt and cut off jeans felt just right.



I have a new "bag du jour"... my plum Mat & Nat has made a reappearance. I just LOVE this bag... the purple is the most perfect shade ever. It seems to just go with anything.



Can earrings be too big? The earrings are Amrita Singh. I have been wanting a piece of their jewelry forever. Very Slumdog-Millionaire-Chic. They were on GILT last week and I decided it was time...
