Thursday Mixer--Red and White Striped Dress

This dress was one of the rare pieces where I found myself instantly drawn to it, shied away from the undiscounted price tag and then found myself seeking it out days later, despite the "steep" $24 price.  I made a great decision.

This dress is an amazing remix piece.  As you can see below, I have worn it as a dress and a top.  I have worn it with a belt, a scarf, a button up tied at the waist and a cardigan.  Oh the possibilities!  At a price per wear of $4.80, you really can't go wrong.

Share the Covers--This Land is My Land

I'm not going to get into too much detail, but really not much is needed--the Muslim ban is disgusting.  So here is an original of a song I've been thinking a lot about . . .

 

And a really cool cover that I recently saw on a commercial for liquor of all places . . .
