Valentines Day

Well, another Valentines Day has come and gone, and left me dateless. However, I'm not going to gripe. I had a lovely evening with my wonderful mother and so it was all ok.

Sadly (or happily depending on how you look at it) Valentines day fell on Classy Tuesday and thus this week was born. The color of the the day was of course pink/red so I had to wear at least one item of pink... err, I felt the peer pressure to wear something in the pink/red family. And because red looks horrid on m, the only option was pink. This year I opted to build off my salmon pink J. Crew tee which my mother picked up for me in Las Vegas while outlet shopping last summer. Next I added a white eyelet skirt and a black cardigan with sequin buttons and my easy going oxfords.

There is a funny/annoying story about my lovely outfit. If you know me well then you know I have an obsession with my nails, they always have to be painted and cuticles clipped short. Well, I did my nails on Monday and sort of clipped my cuticle a bit short. Slightly bloody, but with a little H2O2 it was all ok. Not so much in the morning. Somehow in my haze of tired and grumbling I managed to re-open my cuticle and bleed all over my skirt. Luckily, due to some quick thinking, I was able to get the red off and dry the skirt in time to leave for school. CRISIS AVERTED. So, yay. However, lesson learned, when in doubt, use a band-aid. Especially if there is a white skirt involved.

Be careful with the cuticle nippers and of course, keep it classy
