When I tried on this vest at first, I wasn't completely enamored over it.  My cousin actually described the fur as a "sheepie-lion."  And to be honest, I've actually tried on the vest with no pants. All I could see was next year's Halloween outfit as a cave-woman.

However, after revisiting it for a second time, I realized that furry vests make me feel fancy.  No really, like a housewife of Beverly Hills, walking down Rodeo Drive on a frigid (not really) December day.  After living in Los Angeles for 9 months, I'll admit, I've taken a few cues from the funny Angelenos wearing furry jackets and vests during 68 degree winters. Paris Hilton, I get it.  Putting on large amount of furriness on our torsos evokes a casual glamour that only could be described as "feeling like a fancy lady."

Adding the sparkly pumps was totally a last minute idea.  Maybe it's my subconscious making small homage to my second home.

Although I know I'll be a Seattlite forever, I really do miss LA.

  6. Loving the vest and the heels -- I couldn't agree more about the "fancy feeling" you get from wearing a simple fur vest.
